Piper-Heidsieck has partnered with Dubai Duty Free to introduce the 1st opus of a collection of Special Issues: Hors-Serie 1971, which will be available in Terminal 3 Arrivals Salon Priv\u00e9 (inside shop 4) and Concourse B in very limited quantity as of December 2021.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Produced in ultra-limited edition, each Hors-S\u00e9rie cuv\u00e9e stands out for its uniqueness, whether it is the time in the cellar, a singular blend or unique sourcing, each bottle and each release is distinctive.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With Hors-S\u00e9rie, \u00c9milien Boutillat, Piper-Heidsieck Chief Winemaker has carte blanche to fully express his creativity. \u00c9milien Boutillat conveys and enhances the Piper-Heidsieck heritage, highlighting its creativity and audacity while revealing the contemporary yet permanent nuances of this celebrated Champagne house.<\/p>\n

The uniqueness of a fifty-year-old blend enhanced by the exclusivity of a recent disgorgement and a very specific dosage.<\/p>\n

Hors-S\u00e9rie 1971 is the reinterpretation of a vintage blend dating from 50 years ago.<\/p>\n

For \u00c9milien Boutillat, the dosage liqueur is like a spice that enhances a dish. The one used for HORS-S\u00c9RIE 1971, with a dosage of 10 grams, was produced from a 2019 Chardonnay, with no malolactic fermentation, as was the tradition in 1971.<\/p>\n

At the disgorgement in February 2021, the liqueur and the vintage were in perfect harmony. With this decisive, specific twist, \u00c9milien Boutillat intensified the vintage, elevating its balance and unexpected personality, liberating its vibrancy, and enabling it to fully flourish in the glass.<\/p>\n

The expertise of the craftmen who produced HORS-S\u00c9RIE 1971 box rivals the Chief Winemaker\u2019s creativity. Thanks to their craftsmanship, these artisans, based in Rennes (France), painstakingly selected pieces of solid oak from French forests, managed sustainably, and plied their technical prowess, carving directly into the wood to create boxes to safeguard each bottle.<\/p>\n
