Product Detail

Clicquot Yellow Label truly is the House’s signature champagne – balancing all 4 dimensions defining the Veuve Clicquot style: freshness, strength, aromatic richness & silkiness. The predominance of Pinot Noir provides the structure that is so typically Veuve Clicquot, while a touch of Meunier rounds out the blend. Chardonnay adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine. To ensure the quality and continuity of the Yellow Label’s style, the blend can be created with up to 45 % reserve wines. Veuve Clicquot has the largest and the most varied collection of reserve wines (400 wines, aged up to 30 years).

TASTING NOTES

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

Aroma: The Brut Carte Jaune cuvée reveals an aromatic profile dominated by notes of white and yellow fruits like pear, apple, and peach. Hints of citrus fruits like mandarin and grapefruit blend harmoniously with gourmand aromas of brioche.

Taste: Structured by Pinot Noir, the true backbone of the wine. It offers flavors of pear, peach, and pastry enhanced by a touch of dried fruit from aging on lees, which gives it a true aromatic richness.

FOOD PAIRINGS

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.

ORIGIN

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.

EXPERT REVIEW

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.
