Product details
Veuve Clicquot, founded in the late 18th century, owes much of its success to Madame Clicquot, who revolutionized the champagne industry by inventing the riddling table and creating the first blended rosé. Today, the house owns 390 hectares across the prestigious Grand and Premier Crus of Champagne. The 2015 vintage stands out for its concentration and structure, benefiting from a warm, sunny growing season. Aged partly in oak barrels and on lees, this Brut Champagne is dosed at 6 g/L, showcasing the brand's commitment to quality.
The 2015 Veuve Clicquot Vintage Champagne shines with a brilliant yellow hue and offers a vibrant nose of orange, grapefruit, and lemon zest. On the palate, it's balanced and indulgent, blending flavors of biscuit, brioche, marmalade, and dried apricot with hints of date, toasted almonds, hazelnut, and honey. Ideal food pairings include marsh samphire, katsuobushi, citrus fruits, and smoked or grilled international dishes.
