Founded in 1851 by Charles-Camille Heidsieck, Champagne House is the smallest of the Grandes Marques in the Champagne region. Unlike other champagne brands, Hashev was the first French champagne to enter the United States, which was the first to enter the United States. In the United States, Charles Haxue is affectionately known as Champagne Charlie, and his pioneering story was adapted into a Hollywood screen classic - Champagne Charlie 100 years later.
It is a pity that Ha Xue's fate has been ill-fated, and it has changed hands many times in 50 years, and the stability and continuity of production and operation have been broken. Although not favored by the market, Haxue has never discounted its quality, and its champagne has been praised by professional wine critics, and has performed well in competitions such as the International Wine Tasting Competition (IWC), the International Wine Spirits Challenge, and the Decanter World Wine Grand Prix, with an average of more than 15 awards per wine, making it one of the Champagne houses with the most awards.
Château Hacher currently has six champagnes: unvintage dry and rosé, vintage dry and rosé, Blanc de Blanc and Blanc des Millénaires. Among them, the unvintage dry champagne (Brut Réserve) is worth mentioning, the base wine is Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier with 1/3 each, and the rare proportion of 40% precious wine is added, the average age of the wine is about 10 years, the fermentation is completed in stainless steel vats, and the wine is aged for 3 years with clay bottles, which enhances the complexity and connotation of the wine.
In 1993, Château Hacha released its first Blanc des Millénaires champagne, aged 1983, and this premium Blanc de Blanc de Blanc became the estate's top cuvée, easily disappearing, with only four vintages since its creation: 1985, 1990, 1995 and 2004, which are sold far less frequently than their counterparts in other châteaux, which shows the cautious attitude of Hachael's approach to this wine. Millénaires means millennium, referring to the millennium-old chalk cellar of Château Hascher located in the city of Reims, where the finest Chardonnay grapes from the famous village of Côte Blanc are fermented entirely in stainless steel barrels and bottled in chalk cellars for at least 10 years.
