✨ Technical Specifications
To celebrate the transition into the third millennium, Veuve Clicquot created the limited-edition 'Trilennium' Reserve Brut. This historic cuvée was uniquely crafted by blending three of the house's most exceptional vintages from the late 20th century: 1989, 1990, and 1993. Reflecting the house's signature style, it is anchored by Pinot Noir, which provides structure and depth, complemented by the elegance of Chardonnay and the roundness of Pinot Meunier. Having undergone extended lees aging, this rare bottling offers a complex sensory journey of toasted brioche, honeyed stone fruits, and preserved citrus, representing a masterclass in the art of Champagne assemblage.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot, Maison Veuve Clicquot attained legendary status under the stewardship of Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin, who was widowed in 1805. Madame Clicquot pioneered landmark innovations, creating the first recorded vintage Champagne in 1810, developing the riddling table (pupitre) in 1816, and formulating the modern blended rosé Champagne method in 1818. Today owned by LVMH, the house oversees roughly 390 hectares of estate vineyards—dominated by Grand and Premier Cru parcels across the Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, and Vallée de la Marne—all certified under Haute Valeur Environnementale (HVE 3) and Viticulture Durable en Champagne (VDC). Under Cellar Master Didier Mariotti, the winemaking philosophy remains anchored in Pinot Noir, imparting structure, breadth, and vinous intensity. Masterful reserve-wine blending and extended maturation inside Reims' UNESCO-listed Gallo-Roman chalk crayères define benchmark cuvées such as Yellow Label Brut, Extra Brut Extra Old, and the prestigious vintage cuvée, La Grande Dame.
