Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé Champagne in Gift Box, 75 cl

Made using 50 to 60 different crus, and 30 to 45% of Reserve wines, the cuvée is based on Yellow Label’s traditional blend: the Pinot Noir predominance (50-55%) provides the structure that is so typically Veuve Clicquot, while Chardonnay (28-33%) adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine, and a touch of Meunier (15-20%) rounds out the blend. The blend is then completed with 12% of still red wine using red grapes, providing fruitiness.

On the nose: The nose is generous and elegant with initial aromas of fresh red fruits (raspberry, wild strawberry, cherry, blackberry) leading to biscuity notes (almond, apricot and brioche). On the palate: Full bodied and deliciously fruity with intense flavours of juicy ripe strawberries and cherries. A burst of red fruits and the expression of Madame Clicquot’s ingenious and audacious spirit.
