If you enjoy Veuve Clicquot champagne and are looking for a deeper understanding of just what sets it apart from any other, this excellent vintage is a good place to start. With a rare aromatic richness and complexity that's the result of prolonged time spent on lees and partial ageing in oak casks, it's the Maison's 67th vintage since 1810 – the year Madame Clicquot created the first vintage champagne.
Presented in a beautiful gift box (crafted from 50% hemp and 50% recycled paper) with a brown wood pattern that's a nod to the oak casks the champagne has been partially aged in, it has an immense ageing potential of more than 15 years – making it a great gift, too.

EXPERT REVIEW

Appearance: Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label looks beautiful; golden-yellow, with a foaming necklace of tiny bubbles.

Aroma: 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.

Taste: The first sip delivers all the freshness and strength so typical of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label with a sympthony 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.

Yellow Label’s consistent power to please makes it ideal for an apéritif or to shine bright throughout a meal. Its radiant style works beautifully with salmon, blinis, fish tartare, seafood, tagliatelle, Parmesan and crackers.

This champagne is perfect with street food such as burgers, wok, vegetables and maki. Pair with raw and crunchy; tartar, carpaccio, salad and juicy fruits. Continue with freshness and energy: early fruits and vegetables and citrus.

Reims, Champagne France. Veuve Clicquot champagne has always been a creative act, requiring unique expertise grounded in a love for Pinot Noir and the art of aging. From harvest to shipment, Veuve Clicquot is inspired by the House’s longstanding motto, “only one quality, the finest.” Madame Clicquot’s legacy shines on throughout the House with passion and optimism.

Wine Spectaor – 90 POINTS: This fresh and balanced champagne is lightly toasted, with snappy acidity and a lively, creamy mousse carrying flavours of white cherry, pickled ginger and marcona almond. Offer saline-laced minerality.

Decanter – 94 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.

Wine enthisiast - 90 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.
