The French Champagne House Celebrates 100 Years Since Prohibition with Special Limited-Edition Bottle
Piper-Heidsieck, the revered French Champagne house known worldwide for its red label, is thrilled to announce its return as the sole Champagne to be served during the 92nd Oscars® awards season. This marks the sixth year of a long-term partnership between Piper-Heidsieck and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
One hundred years since the Eighteenth Amendment banned the sale of alcohol in the United States, Piper-Heidsieck is paying tribute to cinema in the Roaring Twenties with a limited-edition magnum to be served at this year’s Oscars. Featuring the House’s signature Cuvée Brut, the label will be a replica of the one used during the Prohibition era.
“In the 1920s, bootleggers would smuggle Piper-Heidsieck into the United States where it would be secretly served in speakeasys throughout New York City. Now, Hollywood’s biggest stars will get to enjoy the same Piper-Heidsieck Brut during the biggest awards show of the year,” declared Benoit Collard, General Manager for Piper-Heidsieck.
Piper-Heidsieck will be poured exclusively at the awards ceremony and Governors Ball, the Academy’s official Oscars after-party. In addition to the awards ceremony on February 9, Piper-Heidsieck champagne will be poured at Academy events in Los Angeles, New York and London, including the Oscar Nominees Luncheon on January 27.
