Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label 375ml
Champagne
Description
Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot is one of the most recognised Champagne houses in the world, renowned for its consistency, structure and pioneering spirit. Based in Reims in the heart of Champagne, the house was shaped significantly by Madame Barbe-Nicole Clicquot, whose innovative approach in the early 19th century helped establish modern Champagne production techniques and international prestige for the brand.
The signature Yellow Label Brut reflects the house style built around structure, freshness and depth. Pinot Noir forms the backbone of the blend, bringing power and definition, while Chardonnay contributes elegance and precision, with Pinot Meunier adding softness and approachability. A significant proportion of reserve wines is included each year to maintain stylistic consistency across vintages.
Extended lees ageing adds texture and complexity, resulting in a Champagne that balances richness with brightness in a way that has made Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label a benchmark non-vintage Champagne for generations.
Colour:
Bright golden yellow with a fine, persistent mousse.
Nose:
Fresh orchard fruit aromas of apple, pear and white peach lead the nose, followed by notes of brioche, citrus peel, almond and delicate pastry spice.
Palate:
Lively and structured, with crisp citrus and stone fruit flavours balanced by creamy texture and fine bubbles. Pinot Noir gives the wine its core and gentle power, while the reserve wines add layers of toasted bread, biscuit and subtle nuttiness. The acidity remains fresh and focused throughout.
Finish:
Clean, refreshing and persistent, with lingering citrus, baked apple and brioche notes.
