PIPER-HEIDSIECK Cuvée Brut For 88th Annual Oscars

Comment(s)

The revered French Champagne House PIPER-HEIDSIECK, known worldwide for the red of its label and the gold of its wine, unveiled the “Red Carpet Ready” limited edition magnum bottle that will be poured exclusively at this year’s 88th Oscars ceremony and Governors Ball, the Academy’s official post-Oscars celebration. With only 1000 bottles produced, the special limited edition magnum was unveiled during the Oscars Nominee Luncheon in order to give nominees a ‘sneak peek’ of what they will be drinking on February 28th. An exceptional bottle for an exceptional night, the PIPER-HEIDSIECK Cuvee Brut magnum was designed by the 230 year-old French House specifically for the occasion with the word “Oscars” and the number “88” forming a golden “tiara” wrapped by hand around each bottle. PIPER-HEIDSIECK believes that nothing less than a magnum is worthy of the grandeur of Oscars night. “We are thrilled to celebrate a momentous occasion with a momentous bottle, one that reflects the Academy and the House’s shared value of excellence,” says Benoit Collard, Global Executive Director PIPER-HEIDSIECK. “These magnums are as grand and bold as the films and performances we are celebrating this year.” PIPER-HEIDSIECK Cuvée Brut is a classic, structured, full-bodied Champagne with harmonious balance. The blend is mainly Pinot Noir incorporating more than 100 crus from the Champagne region in France. A clear, golden Champagne, Cuvee Brut’s delicate, fine bubbles result from an extended maturation. A juicy, fleshy pear and golden grape texture, the wine’s finish narrows to citrus and grapefruit flavors.
