Heidsieck Monopole Extra Dry

Founded in 1785 by Florens-Louis Heidsieck, Heidsieck & Co Monopole is the original Heidsieck House and the 4th oldest Champagne House. In 1834, after several disagreements, his three nephews went their separate ways. One of them, Henri-Louis Walbaum continued the business alone and established the trademark 'Monopole' in 1860. The Heidsieck & Co House reflects the legacy of Champagne. Still evocative of that era, Heidsieck cuv es blend the modern world and traditional savoir-faire with the same passion. Heidsieck & Co Monopole has a close history with governments of Europe in the 19th and 20th centuries. The house received royal warrants in Prussia, Germany, Russia but also for the British Crown and the Swedish Crown. Heidsieck Monopole was also the official champagne on many cruise lines including the Titanic. The most exciting story of Heidsieck Monopole is the story of the J nk ping (a ship sunk by a German submarine in 1916). In 1998, in the Baltic Sea, a submarine expedition found its wreck and the 2,400 bottles of Heidsieck vintage 1907 that were found 82 years later turned out to be very well preserved and the wine was excellent!
