Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Tasting note:

Won the gold medal for the Mondial de Bruxelles, Belgium in 2006. The majority of the blend of Piper-Heidsieck's signature Cuvee Brut is composed of Pinot Noir. Hand-selected parcels of Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay also play important roles in the elaboration of this well-balanced cuvee. selected reserve wines from preceding years are incorporatedinto the blend to ensure consistency of style year after year. The blend is aged for minimum of 24 months on the lees before release. A toasty, well-crafted bubbly with notes of green apples. Food matches: oysters, crab, lobster, nuts, creamy cheese.
