The House of an elegant gentleman entrepreneur, determined to reinvent himself. A taste for excellence, audacity, and witty elegance—this bold, very French harmony is the hallmark of Charles-Camille Heidsieck himself, the "panache" founder of his House. At 29, Charles-Camille Heidsieck founded his own Champagne House. Pragmatic, he focused on the winemaking and maturation processes. In 1852, Charles Heidsieck left for America. He quickly made a name for himself in the exclusive circle of American elites. Highly regarded, he was even nicknamed "Champagne Charlie."
