Our opinion on the 1916 vintage: a generally successful year. In a context of war, the 1916 wines are rather successful but there is a lower harvest quantity, which brings additional rarity to these wines.

In Bordeaux, the wines are mainly distinguished by their powerful tannins, which gives them aging potential, but they lack somewhat in sophistication. The red wines show a magnificent colour, full-bodied structure and beautiful fruity expression. The sweet wines are almost comparable to the 1914 vintage, with great elegance for the Sauternes.

In Burgundy, due to an almost non-existent summer, the wines are ordinary and light, lacking in character.

In the Rhône Valley, the vintage was a great success, with wines of similar quality to those of 1911 and 1914.

In Champagne, Piper-Heidsieck is the only house to dare produce a vintage that year.
