    Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot has since lived by it's motto, "Only one quality, the finest." "Yellow Label" is it's signature champagne, defining the Veuve Clicquot style through a perfect balance of strength, aromatic intensity, freshness and silkiness. The predominance of Pinot Noir provides the structure while the addition of 30 to 45% of priceless Reserve Wines will ensure the year on year consistency that is so typically Clicquot. On the nose: yellow and white fruits, then notes of vanilla and later of brioche. On the palate: freshness and strength while pear and lemon tastes appear.

    — Wine Spectator, 90 POINTS

    Lemony richness on the nose, a stuck-match character that falls in with a lemon vanilla note. Toffee apple allure on the palate with chalky coolness and a savoury, nutty finish.

    — Decanter, 94 POINTS

    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 flavours give it an immediate drinkability as well as perfumed acidity and a vibrant aftertaste. Drink this bottling now.

    Veuve Clicquot

    Born in 1777 to a textile manufacturer in Reims, Champagne, Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin's life took a pivotal turn when widowed at just 27. Defying the norms of her time, she seized control of her destiny, stepping into leadership of her father-in-law's company, established in 1772. With unwavering passion and determination, she navigated an era that largely excluded women from business. Her relentless pursuit of innovation marked a new chapter for Champagne: she pioneered the first vintage champagne, introduced the riddling table, and crafted the first blended rosé champagne. These innovations reshaped the industry, setting the standard for modern champagne production. Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin transformed her name into a symbol of excellence, renowned globally. Her remarkable achievements earned her the revered title of "la grande dame of Champagne."

    Champagne is a wine of legend. The entire history of the Veuve Clicquot House is marked by mythical wines, all of which respect the demand for quality that was the force that drove Madame Clicquot. True to this heritage, the House is proud of its motto: "Only one quality, the finest." A short lineage of just 11 Cellar Masters has led this quest for quality, thereby ensuring the continuity of the Veuve Clicquot style: strength and complexity. Veuve Clicquot priors itself on excellence and quality. Only the juice from the cuvée (the first and most noble pressing) is used.

    Tasting notes

    NOSE
    Vanilla, Fruity, Toasty

    On the nose initially reminiscent of yellow and white fruits, the of vanilla and later brioche. Note the fine balance between the fruity aromas coming from the grape varieties and the toasty aromas, result of the three years of bottle aging.

    PALATE
    Fresh, Structured, Lingering

    The first sip delivers all the freshness and strength so typical of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label with a symphony of fruit tastes following on (pear, lemon). Here is a true member of the brut family, well structured, admirably vinous. The lingering aromas echo and re-echo, with each fruit or almond notes distinct.

    FINISH
    Crisp, Persistent, Well Rounded

    Crisp and persistent, with the citrus and fruit flavours lingering on the palate. A touch of minerality and a hint of toasty notes round out the finish.
