✨ Tekniske specifikationer
In 1818, Madame Clicquot revolutionized the Champagne world by creating the very first blended Rosé Champagne, breaking away from the traditional method of using elderberry-based coloring. She chose instead to blend some of her finest still red wines from the Bouzy region with her classic white sparkling base. Today, Veuve Clicquot Rosé Brut continues this legacy. It is crafted by adding about 12% of still red wine, sourced from specially selected black grape parcels, to the traditional Yellow Label blend. This meticulous process ensures a harmonious balance of structure and elegance, showcasing the house's signature Pinot Noir dominance alongside the freshness of Chardonnay and the roundness of Meunier. The wine is aged for a minimum of three years on its lees in the historic chalk cellars (crayères) of Reims, resulting in a beautifully structured, copper-toned champagne with aromas of fresh red fruits, brioche, and dried fruits.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Veuve Clicquot blev grundlagt i Reims i 1772 af Philippe Clicquot, men opnåede for alvor global berømmelse under Madame Clicquots visionære lederskab. Den legendariske »Grande Dame de la Champagne« overtog huset i 1805 og revolutionerede branchen med skelsættende nyskabelser som opfindelsen af pultrebrættet (la table de remuage) og fremstillingen af den første blendede rosé-champagne. Huset har dermed sat et uudsletteligt præg på den moderne mousserende vinhistorie. Med rødder i Champagnes fornemste terroirs dyrker ejendommen en Pinot Noir-domineret stil, der forener strukturel styrke og fylde med en rank og vedvarende friskhed. I dag hører champagnehuset under LVMH-gruppen og er verdenskendt for sin ikoniske Yellow Label Brut samt prestigeserier som La Grande Dame og de eksklusive årgangsvine i Cave Privée-serien.
