The 2018 Vintage was challenging but rewarding for Charles Heidsieck. Heavy rains and stormy spring weather as followed by a hot, dry summer in which the vines were able to thrive. The yields were high which allowed winemakers to replenish reserves after a tough 2017, and the resulting wines were fresh, elegant and fruity.
