JEAN PAUL GAULTIER + PIPER-HEIDSIECK
Champagne Piper-Heidsieck has collaborated with French fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier for the second time to create two new sensual and alluring gift sets perfect for adding an avant garde experience to any occasion. A name synonymous with fashion and popular culture, Jean Paul Gaultier has joint forces with Grande Maison Champagne Piper-Heidsieck resulting in two new exclusive bottles: Black Cancan and French Cancan.
Champagne Piper-Heidsieck was founded in 1785 by Florens-Louis Heidsieck. Since its creation, Piper-Heidsieck has always been associated with the greats and the goods from Marie Antoinette Queen of France, to Marilyn Monroe.
Black Cancan features a bottle of the Piper-Heidsieck Millesime Vintage 2000 seductively dressed in noir fishnets and crowned in dazzling Swarovski crystals. Presented in a beautiful coffret, the champagne comes alongside two Schott Zwiesel crystal glasses with the shape encapsulating Jean Paul Gaultier’s signature curves. Also created for the house of Jean Paul Gaultier, the French Cancan is available with the Cuvee Brut champagne.
Tasting Notes Piper-Heidsieck Vintage 2000
Palate: A powerful, bewitching evocation of the Middle East. Delicate sensations of butter, acacia honey and white tea
Nose: Fresh pastry, exotic fruit and coconut
Finish: Spicy combination of henna, incense and sandal wood
With a golden hue and iridescent reflections, the Piper-Heidsieck Millesime 2000 is a truly exceptional vintage and a true testament of Regis Camus’ talent and commitment to excellence; when you add to the definitive touch Jean Paul Gaultier to the exterior it’s plain to see why this is most certainly a gift of note.
The Black Cancan is limited to only 10 coffrets and is available exclusively from Selfridges for £535.
