Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Champagne Yellow Label Brut

. Original price: . Final price: $43.99

Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin is a renowned Champagne house based in the heart of the Champagne region in France. The Yellow Label Brut is a classic expression of the house's style, known for its rich and full-bodied character. This non-vintage Champagne is crafted from a blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay grapes, with Pinot Noir being the dominant varietal, providing structure and strength. The wine undergoes a meticulous winemaking process, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging on the lees for a minimum of 30 months, which contributes to its complexity and creamy texture. The flavor profile is marked by notes of ripe apple, citrus, and brioche, with a fine mousse and a balanced acidity. It pairs beautifully with seafood, light appetizers, and creamy cheeses.
