Régis Camus was recently named Sparkling Winemaker of the Year at the 2011 International Wine Challenge in London.

This is the sixth time that the winemaker of Charles Heidsieck and Piper Heidsieck champagnes has received the award, a record equalled only by his predecessor Daniel Thibault, under whom he worked for eight years before succeeding to the post in 2002.

Thibault invented the Charles Heidsieck style and Camus defined that of Piper Heidsieck.

Charles Heidsieck Brut Réserve was voted best French wine by Bettane et Desseauve.

At the International Wine Challenge, Charles Heidsieck Millésime 2000 was named Best Sparkling Wine, a distinction awarded to Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires 1995 at the Decanter World Wine Awards and to Piper-Heidsieck Rare 1998 at the Japan Wine Challenge.

Charles Heidsieck and Piper Heidsieck champagnes are imported by Farsons.
