NAPA, Calif., Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- To mark its 175th anniversary, Charles Heidsieck unveils The Soul of Charles, a singular creation that captures the very essence of the House. Conceived as a tribute to its savoir-faire, patience and transmission, this unique cuvée brings together 37 wines spanning the years 1937 to 2020, in other words 10 decades. Almost a century of the House's winemaking memory in a single cuvée.

Soul of Charles - Charles Heidsieck

"Deep within the Crayères, I selected several historic vintages, starting with 1937 and including legendary years such as 1945, 1955 and the renowned 1985 vintage, which were then blended with more contemporary vintages," said Émilien Érard, Cellar Master of Charles Heidsieck

At Charles Heidsieck, time has always been considered the House's fourth grape variety. With The Soul of Charles, it becomes the true architect of the blend, revealing the extraordinary depth and complexity that define the House's style.

The cuvée's distinctive label pays tribute to Charles Heidsieck's visionary spirit through a reinterpretation of the historic Champagne Cosmopolite label, first registered in 1866. A symbol of the founder's audacity, it reflects the international destiny of his wines, whose reputation extended far beyond Champagne as early as the nineteenth century.

More than an anniversary cuvée, The Soul of Charles is the embodiment of 175 years of history, craftsmanship and transmission.

The Soul of Charles is presented exclusively in Jeroboam format (3 L) and will be released in a strictly limited edition of 175 units. It will be available this autumn in the USA by limited allocation from noblemerchants.com at a suggested retail price of $2000.
