HEIDSIECK MONOPOLE & CO. Reims France
Homage to the historic region of Reims, in the heart of Champagne. We are talking about Monopole Blu Top, proposed here by Heidsieck. It originates in Reims, located in the Champagne-Ardenne region, an area famous for its unique terroir, characterised by chalky soils that allow the roots of the vines to penetrate deeply, giving the wines minerality and freshness. The climate, on the other hand, is continental with oceanic influences, ideal for the slow ripening of the grapes, guaranteeing perfect acidity and great aromatic complexity. Champagne Monopole Blu Top is a blend of the region's three classic grape varieties: 70% Pinot Noir, 20% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Meunier. Produced (of course) according to the Champenoise method, this champagne matures in contact with the yeasts in the bottle for a full 36 months. This long period of maturation gives it complexity and depth, with notes of toast, butter and spices. The dosage is Brut, thus maintaining a perfect balance between acidity and sweetness. This champagne can be well kept for a period of 7-10 years, retaining all its best characteristics and indeed developing further complexity with the passage of time. It is already perfect as an aperitif, but on the table it goes beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Indeed, it can accompany the entire meal, from seafood and shellfish to white meat and poultry dishes. It is also ideal with soft cheeses and light desserts, which amplify its complexity and finesse.
Do you know Charles Heidsieck? The man or the Champagne? No matter, they are inseparable! Charismatic, dandy, globetrotter, popular. An ambassador of France and Champagne who earned the nickname Champagne Charlie in the United States. In 1989 they even made a film about him, starring Hugh Grant. But in 1862, the same country that had consecrated him to immortality as an icon of French bubbly brought him close to bankruptcy. Accused of espionage, he was arrested and imprisoned for seven months. Found innocent, he returned to France in November of that year, in poor health and on the verge of bankruptcy. The episode is still remembered today as the Heidsieck Incident. Champagne Charlie was not, however, an easy guy to break. In fact, he managed to make a full recovery, conquering, after America, courts all over Europe. Today, the Maison founded by Charles in 1851 continues to thrive (it boasts the world's most important wine shop in terms of size and value), and its style, which fully reflects Charles' unmistakable style, is characterised by a high proportion of Reserve wines that enrich the Maison's cuvées sans année. The selected grapes constitute, together with the original crus, the complexity of the final product.
