Veuve Clicquot Magnum Brut NV Champagne 150cl

Veuve Clicquot's Yellow Label Magnum of Champagne is the signature of Veuve Clicquot’s quality and style available as a larger bottle of 150cl equivalent to two standard bottles. It manages to reconcile two opposing factors - strength and silkiness - and hold them in perfect balance with aromatic intensity and a lot of freshness. Its consistent power to please makes Yellow Label ideal as an aperitif, and perfect to be enjoyed throughout the meal. Try pairing Yellow Label with fish tartar, salmon or blinis, or with some Parmesan for the ideal cheese pairing.

The Pinot Noir predominance (50-55%) provides the structure that is so typically Veuve Clicquot, while Chardonnay (28-33%) adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine, and a touch of Meunier (15-20%) rounds out the blend.

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. Finish: admirably vinous. The lingering aromas echo and re-echo, with each fruit or almond notes distinct. Ideal as an aperitif, and ideal as the Champagne to enjoy with a meal.
