Blue top

Blue Top is the most important cuvée from Heidsieck & Co Monopole. The blend relies on 70% Pinot Noir, with 20% Chardonnay and 10% Meunier. In the glass this brut shows a straw-yellow colour with emerald-green highlights and a fine, well-integrated mousse. The nose is powerful and generous, while on the palate it feels lively and fresh, with citrus and fresh fruit. Woody, spicy, toasty and even buttery notes add fullness and depth.

Serve it at 8 to 10°C in a tulip-shaped white wine glass, which lets the aromas open up nicely. It works as an aperitif and goes well with white meat, fish, shellfish and crustaceans. The bottle comes in a gift box.
