Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Rare Brut 2012 is a prestige vintage Champagne from Champagne, France. Piper-Heidsieck was founded in Reims in 1785, and the prestige cuvée line was rebranded as Rare Champagne in 2018. The 2012 is Chardonnay-dominant with approximately 30% Pinot Noir, undergoes full malolactic fermentation without oak aging, and carries a dosage of eight grams per litre. It aged for seven years in chalk cellars before disgorgement in November 2023. It is bottled at 12% ABV. The nose opens with ripe citrus oil and candied lemon, then white peach, acacia blossom and honeysuckle, with toasted brioche, hazelnut and baking spice. The palate has silky mousse with ripe pear, stone fruit and citrus zest, then toasty exotic fruit and gentle creaminess. The finish is exceptionally long, with salty mineral persistence and lingering hazelnut and brioche.
