✨ Technical Specifications
Celebrating two and a half centuries of pioneering spirit, the Veuve Clicquot Brut 250th Anniversary Edition Vintage honors the legacy of Madame Clicquot, who took the reins of the house in 1805 and revolutionized Champagne production with her invention of the riddling table. This commemorative vintage bottling showcases the house's signature style, heavily anchored by Pinot Noir which provides structure and vinous depth. Sourced predominantly from prestigious Grand and Premier Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs, the blend is complemented by Chardonnay for elegance and Meunier for fruitiness. Aged for several years on its lees in the historic chalk Crayères, the wine develops a complex profile characterized by toasted brioche, ripe stone fruits, and a refined mineral tension derived from the region's classic Kimmeridgian chalk soils.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot in Reims, Veuve Clicquot rose to global prominence under the visionary leadership of Madame Clicquot, the legendary Grande Dame of Champagne who took control of the house in 1805. Renowned for transformative innovations including the creation of the riddling table and the development of the first blended rosé Champagne, the Maison has shaped modern sparkling winemaking history. Anchored in premier terroirs across Champagne, the estate champions a Pinot Noir-dominant philosophy that delivers structural power, richness, and enduring freshness. Today, part of the LVMH group, the house is celebrated globally for its iconic Yellow Label Brut as well as prestige expressions like La Grande Dame and the vintage Cave Privée series.
