Champagne Charles Heidsieck ads

With the 2026 harvest complete, a new chapter has begun in the winery. The musts have undergone alcoholic fermentation, with each cru and grape variety vinified separately and monitored daily. These careful observations have guided key winemaking decisions and revealed the first expressions of the vintage. At Charles Heidsieck, selected wines are also vinified in barrel and aged on lees for around six months, bringing roundness, richness and subtle brioche notes. From fresh, delicate Meunier to Chardonnay vinified in barrel, each wine contributes to shaping the Charles Heidsieck style and its signature texture. The 2026 vintage is already beginning to reveal itself.

2026 Harvest: a year of records in Champagne Heatwaves, drought and exceptionally rapid sugar accumulation have shaped a harvest unlike any other. As the 2026 harvest continues, Émilien Érard, Cellar Master of Charles Heidsieck, shares his first impressions from the vineyards.

Blue lobster smoked over vine canes from Aÿ, Champagne “We created a dialogue between Blanc des Millénaires 2017 and the dish. In a way, we brought a part of Champagne to Provence.” Chef Fabien Ferré, three-Michelin-starred chef, La Table du Castellet #Gastronomy #Excellence # Pairing #BlancDesMillénaires #CharlesHeidsieck #Champagne

“The starting point is the vineyard” A blue lobster inspired by the vineyards of Aÿ in Champagne. Poached in crustacean butter, then smoked over vine canes, it becomes texture and memory. A creation conceived in resonance with Blanc des Millénaires 2017. #Gastronomy #Excellence #BlancDesMillénaires #CharlesHeidsieck #Champagne

Where time becomes creation. From the vineyards of Aÿ in Champagne, the journey continues into our chalk cellars, 30 meters underground. Here, where time seems to stand still, Chef Fabien Ferré’s inspiration deepens. Tasting Blanc des Millénaires 2017 extends this discovery and gives rise to a culinary creation shaped by time and craftsmanship. #Gastronomy #Champagne #CharlesHeidsieck #BlancDesMillénaires #Excellence
