Description
The emblematic Veuve Clicquot Brut Champagne in a retro tape collection
The producer
Veuve Clicquot (pronounciation: Vuhv Klee-ko) is today recognized as a globally successful brand, with a fascinating history revolving around one woman: Madame Clicquot. It was in 1798 that François Clicquot married the daughter of Baron Nicolas Ponsardin. Son of the founder of the Maison de Champagne Clicquot, he passed on all his passion to his wife, teaching her the many secrets of champagne making. When her husband died prematurely, at the age of 27, the Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin took over the reins of Champagne Veuve Clicquot. Guided by an innate sense of innovation and a perpetual quest for perfection, she was responsible for the invention of the riddling table and was the first in the region to market a blended rosé champagne. The flagship of the Champagne House remains the Veuve Clicquot Brut, though the portfolio now also includes the Veuve Clicquot Rose and La Grande Dame cuvées.
The vineyard
Owner of 390 hectares, Maison Veuve Clicquot owns one of the largest vineyards in Champagne. This vineyard also stands out for its exceptional quality, as it is spread over 12 of the 17 Grands Crus and 20 of the 44 Premiers Crus of Champagne.
The blend
A true reflection of the typical know-how of the House, the Veuve Clicquot Brut Champagne (Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label) is made from a blend of 50 to 55% Pinot Noir, 28 to 33% Chardonnay and 15 to 20% of Pinot Meunier.
The gift box
The Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Tape Gift Box is a nostalgic blast from the past, taking the form of a cassette tape with one of three unique retro designs. Each box features a QR code which, when scanned, opens the Veuve Clicquot playlists on Spotify, including the aptly named "So Retro" playlist assembled to pair perfectly with the Brut Yellow Label champagne. This gift box also offers a unique opportunity to personalize your wine gift, by adding a personal message on the box, as one used to do on a mix tape made with a special someone in mind.
