Wine Spectator
A bright and lively Champagne, with citrusy acidity enlivening rich hints of crème de cassis, toasted almond and crystallized honey. Accents of minerally smoke and saline linger on the creamy finish. (AN)

Wine Enthusiast
With its 80% of red grapes, this cuvée has structure and fine richness. It has some bottle age while retaining freshness and offers a balanced Champagne that is seamlessly fruity and ready to drink. (RV)

Wine Advocate
The new release of Piper-Heidsieck's NV Cuvée Brut is performing nicely, delivering notes of toasted brioche, yellow orchard fruit, peach, honeycomb and biscuits. Medium to full-bodied, it is elegantly fleshy and precise, with lively acids, well-integrated dosage and a pinpoint mousse. (WK)

Vinous
The NV Brut Cuvée is soft, plush and very easy to like. Brioche, baked apple tart, spice and vanillin are front and center. This is an especially easygoing NV Champagne. The dosage feels a bit on the high side, but the wine's balance is impeccable. I would prefer to drink it over the next few years. L190219. (AG)
