Veuve Clicquot

A House specialty since the 1770s. The robust fruit flavors of Veuve Clicquot's vintage Rose results from adding still Pinot Noir wine from Veuve Clicquot's grand crue vineyards in the village of Bouzy. This wonderful, dry Champagne with its light rose glow and copper highlights is an ideal companion for delicate dishes like salmon or poultry and also as an aperitif. Vintage Reserve Rose has delicate pink color with hints of salmon and lively effervescence. The nose is expressive, with aromas of red fruit (wild strawberry, raspberry and gooseberry) that develop into more complex aromas (fig, fresh almond and bergamot). On the palate, the wine is round and balanced with a lingering finish. The wine has great structure and a strong vinous character, derived from superior quality pinot noir grapes. This wine can be classified as a mythical vintage as far as its maturing potential is concerned.
