Veuve Clicquot Champagne Brut Yellow Label Cooler with Portable Cooler Gift Box 750 ml 12% vol.

Vinification and Maturation

The Veuve Clicquot Champagne Brut Yellow Label represents the high craftsmanship of the traditional house of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin. Following the motto "quality over quantity," a carefully balanced cuvée is composed of 50% to 55% Pinot Noir, 15% to 20% Pinot Meunier, and 28% to 33% Chardonnay. The high proportion of Pinot Noir provides structure and power, while Chardonnay ensures elegance and finesse, and Pinot Meunier rounds out the balance. The cuvée consists of 50 to 60 different crus, including 80% Grands and Premiers Crus. In addition, 25% to 40% carefully matured reserve wines are added, which can be up to nine years old. This precise selection ensures consistent quality and preserves the unmistakable style of Veuve Clicquot. The champagne matures for at least three years in the house's cellars to develop its characteristic depth and complexity.
