The story of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin 'Yellow Label' Brut is as effervescent as the Champagne itself. At its heart is Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin, the formidable "grande dame of Champagne," born in 1777 into a Reims textile dynasty. Left a widow at 27, she transcended the norms of her time, steering her father-in-law's 1772-established winery into groundbreaking territories. Her audacity to innovate birthed the first known vintage Champagne, the pioneering riddling table, and the first blended rosé champagne. These innovations revolutionized champagne production and cemented her legacy and the Veuve Clicquot brand as symbols of excellence worldwide.

Crafted with Passion, Served with Pride

The Brut Yellow Label is a testament to the house's unwavering commitment to quality. A meticulous selection of grapes from 50 to 60 different Crus forms the backbone of this cuvée, with up to 45% reserve wines ensuring the signature Veuve Clicquot style of strength, complexity, and silkiness. The blend—50% Pinot Noir for structure, 30% Chardonnay for elegance, and 20% Meunier for roundness—ages on lees for at least three years, developing its characteristic aromatic richness.

Sensory Symphony

Pouring a glass reveals a golden-yellow hue animated by fine, lively bubbles. The nose is greeted with an orchestra of aromas: ripe white and yellow fruits like pear, apple, and peach blend harmoniously with zesty mandarin and grapefruit citrus notes. Undertones of pastry—reminiscent of fresh brioche and croissants—alongside hints of dried fruits add depth and complexity. This Champagne delights the palate with a balance of freshness, strength, aromatic richness, and a silky texture, embodying the four dimensions of the Veuve Clicquot style.
