What does “In Bond” mean?
Wines sold ‘in bond’ do not include any alcohol duty or VAT. The bottles/cases must be stored in a bonded account with a HMRC registered professional storage facility, they cannot be ordered for home delivery.
When these wines are withdrawn from the bonded storage facility, the duty and VAT are then payable.
Cadman Wine does not operate storage accounts on behalf of customers but we can deliver to your existing storage account or help you set one up with our preferred partners.

SPARKLING WINE
A rule of 60:40:10 is applied to the Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve. 60 – is the number of crus that go into the blend for this wine. Each variteal from each cru is vinified seperately to provide the winemaker with the ultimate blending armoury. 40 – is the percentage of reserve wines in the blend, prodividing the ultimate complextiy for a non-vintage wine. 10 – is the average age of the reserve wines, stored from the best vcrus and vintages.
The reserve wines really show on the nose with aromas of brioche, toasted almonds, mango and white plum. The palate is elegant and crisp with a gentle mousse. Try pairing with a cheese souffle.

CRITIC SCORE 92/100
Based on the 2014 vintage, complemented by fully 40% old reserve wines, the new release of Charles Heidsieck's NV Brut Réserve was disgorged earlier this year. It's showing very well, opening up in the glass with notes of green apple, dried white flowers, pear, candied peel and walnuts. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with a textural attack and a racier, tighter-knit core than either the 2012- or 2010-base renditions, displaying good concentration and underlying richness. This is a bottling that continues to punch above its weight and which both merits and rewards a few years in the cellar before opening.
92+/100 - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
