\n\t\t\t\t\tYou should make a promise to yourself to always have a bottle of Piper-Heidsieck Brut Ros\u00e9 at home, at the ready for any occasion, special or not.\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nPiper-Heidsieck have always been one of the few Big Bubble Brands that you can bring to a dinner party at a Champagne connoiseur\u2019s house and not feel like you\u2019re a complete idiot. Trusty, classic, always delicious, and rarely have I heard a wine snob say anything bad about them, even as they are sipping something funkier, smaller, more independent.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s kind of like driving a BMW. Unquestionably high quality, tight, but still fun, still with a real identity.<\/p>\n
The Brut Ros\u00e9 is perhaps my favorite among their \u201cstandard\u201d line-up. It\u2019s 50% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, 25 % Pinot Meunier, which makes it both vibrantly rosy (the color) and rosey (the smell). It\u2019s a little fruity, but not annoyingly so, and because it has an unusually high amount of red wine in its mix, it holds up really well to bigger dishes and proteins like duck, lamb, and beef.<\/p>\n
This is the kind of bottle of Champagne that you should always have chilling in the refrigerator at home. Not waiting to celebrate child-birth, the election of a president, a new job-offer or anything spectacular. Rather, waiting to popped open on a Wednesday evening, together with a rack of lamb, just because.\t\t<\/p>\n Piper-Heidsieck Brut Ros\u00e9<\/p>\n $74<\/p>\n Founded in 1785, Piper-Heidsieck<\/a> has built a legacy of innovation, excellence, and history, beginning with Florens-Louis Heidsieck\u2019s dream of crafting a \u201ccuv\u00e9e worthy of a queen\u201d\u2014a dream realized when Queen Marie Antoinette became its first ambassador. Today, Piper-Heidsieck is the most awarded Champagne House of the century, served in over 100 countries and led by \u00c9milien Boutillat, one of the youngest chef de cave of a major Champagne House.
