Description
The bold, lively, and pure flavor of Veuve Clicquot Brut Vintage from 2008 transforms into a powerful, structured palate, delicately chiselled from the minerality of Champagne's chalky terroir. The generosity of the Pinot Noir's fruitiness resonatse harmoniously with the freshness of the lightly candied citrus fruit aromas (lemon) which are embellished in the finish with delicate hints of toasted notes. Clear and brilliant with gold-colored lights and a persistent and remarkable effervescence. Delicate hints of toasted notes with aromas of lightly candied citrus fruit and dried fruit (apricots).

"Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Champagne house is founded in 1772 and based in Reims. It is one of the largest Champagne houses. Madame Clicquot created the first known vintage champagne in 1810, and inventing the riddling table process to clarify champagne in 1816. In 1818, she invented the first known blended rosé champagne by blending still red and white wines, a process still used by the majority of champagne producers.
The company was purchased in 1986 by Louis Vuitton, which is now part of LVMH and continues to expand worldwide."
