Piper Heidsieck.
Piper-Heidsieck Champagne.What and Where: It's tempting to wonder whether Piper-Heidsieck isn't a triumph of style over substance: lipstick-red labels, Baby Piper, a vinyl coset-clad bottle designed by Jean-Paul Gaultier and four new champagnes last year, but, in fact, there is some substance here.
What does it taste like? Fresh, fruity and companionable; improves if cellared for a year.
Should you be associated with it? Not on state occasions, but it is fine to serve Piper at parties. Most famous fan: Marilyn Monroe.

I have a Salmanzar (9 Litre) size bottle of Piper-Heidsieck Champagne, Cuvee Year 2000 Brut.
It has being lying flat in its case in a cold room for the last 8 years.
Will it be OK to drink April 2009 as i am getting married?

If it has been stored OK then certainly it should be fine. I would have a backup just to be on the safe side. A wedding without bubbly could be a disaster!
Congrats, by the way.
