      Rare Champagne Millésime 2008 — a taut, celebrated vintage of orchard fruit, citrus and honeycomb.

      From Rare Champagne, founded in 1825 by Charles Heidsieck, this 2008 vintage — one of the decade's most acclaimed — blends Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and rests on its lees for at least nine years. Precise and layered, it balances freshness with depth.

      The Champagne

      Medium to full-bodied with a persistent mousse and crisp, refreshing acidity. Ripe orchard fruit meets toasted brioche, almond and vanilla, leading to a lingering, creamy finish.
