winemaker's notes:

The Champagne produced today by Veuve Clicquot still lives up to the high standards set by Madame Clicquot, a young widow (veuve in French) who took over her late husbands estate at the beginning of the 19th century. It was Madame Clicquot who developed the important riddling procedure for Champagne--a way to remove dead yeast cells from bottles.

alcohol by volume: 12.0%
critical acclaim:

"Lovely bouquet of fresh bread dough, chalk and vanilla. Ripe apple flavors laced with vanilla and pecan. Creamy finish with an enhancing note of autolysis."

The Wine News

"Hints of toast and biscuit accent lightly honeyed flavors of quince, apple blossom and peach in this fresh and balanced Champagne. There’s a stony underpinning, with a smoke-tinged finish. Drink now through 2013."

90 Points

Wine Spectator

"A full-bodied Champagne, this has been enriched by reserve wines to add depth and smoky lees intensity to its brisk, youthful elements. It's a satisfying Brut to serve with poached prawns."

It's a classic; It's great, of course!
A Customer - Baltimore, Maryland
I keep at least 6 of these on hand for toasting for small dinner parties. It is a joy to the palate. It is light, refreshing and goes beautifully with desserts, and light courses. Perfect for dinner for two.
A Customer - Clermont, Florida
We are not usually Champagne drinkers but when our Son gave us this bottle we tried it with friends and found it to be an excellent wine.
