Discover Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Gift bag 750ml:
Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot is synonymous with the art of living. The House style distinguishes itself through the dominance of Pinot Noir which gives strength, complexity and elegance to our wines.
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is the signature champagne of the House. Dominated by Pinot Noir, it offers a perfect balance of structure and finesse. This special Yellow Bag gift set is now available.
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is the House’s hallmark champagne and is available in limited quantities. It is dominated by Pinot Noir and has a wonderful mix of structure and elegance, thanks to the use of oak. First and foremost, Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is a stunning bottle of champagne: golden yellow with a frothy necklace of small bubbles around the neck. Next, it has a wonderful aroma that is initially suggestive of yellow and white fruits, then of vanilla, and finally of brioche, among other things. It’s important to note the delicate balance between the fruity scents derived from the grape varieties and the toasty aromas resulting from the three-year bottle aging process. A symphony of fruit flavors follows after the first sip, delivering all the freshness and vigor that have become synonymous with Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label (pear, lemon). This is a real member of the Brut family, one that is highly constructed and exhibits excellent vinous characteristics. The lingering fragrances reverberate and reverberate, each fruit or almond note different from the others. Strength and silkiness are two opposing factors that Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label manages to reconcile and maintain in perfect harmony, while still retaining an intense aromatic intensity and a great deal of freshness.
Because of its persistent ability to please, it is suitable as an apéritif and also as the champagne to be served with a meal after dinner.

Lemony richness on the nose, a struck match character that falls in with lemon vanilla note. Toffee apple allure on the palate with chalky coolness & savoury nutty finish.
92
Toasty and generous with lemon freshness, this Vueve Cliquot also has quite some dried-pear and peach aromas from mature elements of the blend, plus a touch of spice at the long, structured finish. The cuvée is based on 2015 and is 50% pinot noir, 30% chardonnay and 20% pinot meunier. Reserve wines make up more than one third of the blend. Drink now.

Veuve Cliquot is one of the most popular of all Champagnes, this is now showing a freshness that wasn't always there. The crisp texture and green-apple flavors give it an immediate drinkability as well as perfumed acidity and a vibrant aftertaste.
What is Champagne?
All sparkling wine is Champagne, but not all sparkling wine is Champagne. Sparkling wine comes in a variety of flavors. Champagne, prosecco, cava, and sparkling wine made in the United States are the most popular.
Champagne is only allowed to be named Champagne if it is produced in the Champagne area in northern France. Chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier are used to make a classic Champagne or sparkling wine from the United States. The term "blanc de blancs" refers to a Champagne or sparkling wine composed entirely of chardonnay. If you see "blanc de noirs" on a bottle of Champagne or sparkling wine from the United States, that means it's made entirely of pinot noir.
The sparkling wine of Italy is Prosecco. Prosecco or glera grapes are used to make it. Spain's effervescent wine is known as Cava. Macabeu, parellada, and xarello grapes are commonly used to make it.
Champagne is prepared from a blend of grapes, most commonly chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier, though additional grapes are permitted. The grapes may be cultivated in a few different places throughout France, and they flourish in a variety of soil and weather conditions. While many wines stress "terroir," or the traits imparted by the vineyard, champagne is unique. The champagne house is the focus, since it masterfully combines several varietals to produce a consistent, balanced beverage.
The wine undergoes a further fermentation process within the bottle to produce champagne's distinctive bubbles. Many champagnes are still aged in caves, and they are rotated on a regular basis. The sparkling wine must be aged for at least 15 months, while many are aged for three or more years.
Champagne is frequently served as a toasting wine or in cocktails, but it also goes well with a variety of dishes. With sophisticated appetizers like oysters and blinis, or simpler snacks like deviled eggs and shrimp cocktail, serve a dry bottle. White pizza and fried chicken go well together, as do light fish and chicken dishes. Sweet champagnes pair well with fresh berries and soft cheeses towards the end of a meal.
Although the champagne flute is a beautiful vessel, many experts believe it is an ineffective manner of serving the bubbly. If you're pouring and drinking right away, a white wine glass is excellent for letting the scents to fully open. A sophisticated coup glass is also a fantastic choice.
About the Producer: Veuve Cliquot
Veuve Clicquot, today one of the world's major Champagne houses, was founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot under the label "Clicquot." The company has grown to become one of the world's largest Champagne houses. After successfully extending the brand throughout Europe, Russia, and the United States, Philippe Clicquot was succeeded at the helm of the House by his son, François Clicquot, in 1798. Following his tragic death seven years later, François' young wife, Barbe Ponsardin, took over the family business at the age of just 27 years, after François' death. The House of Clicquot would later be renamed in her honor: 'Veuve Clicquot' literally translates as 'The Widow Clicquot.' The legendary Madame Clicquot (Barbe Ponsardin) is credited with developing three of the most significant improvements in Champagne history, all of which are still in use today. The first vintage wine was produced by Veuve Clicquot in 1810 in Champagne, which had previously only produced non-vintage mixes before then. First and foremost, in 1816, Madame Clicquot devised the riddling table, which she used to clear Veuve Clicquot champagne, so improving the quality and refinement of the wines. To this day, 'La Methode Traditionelle' (the traditional Champagne production method) is regarded as crucial to the process, and it is replicated all over the world. Finally, in 1818, Madame Clicquot created the world's first rose champagne, which was manufactured using the assemblage method, which involves blending white and red wines together.
