Florent-Louis Heidsieck travelled to Champagne, where he felt in love with the terroir and decided to found a Champagne House in 1785. An incredible achievement for this young entrepreneur from Germany.

Did you know that Piper-Heidsieck was the best-selling champagne in the United States in the 1960s? One out of every three bottles was a bottle of Piper-Heidsieck at that time.
Mission Uncorked
In 1965, two astronauts successfully performed the first ever American spacewalk.
