Veuve Clicquot

City Traveller | Half bottle 37,5cl - Presentation pack

Description

Veuve Clicquot continues its "Clicquot On the Go" collection with this City Traveller box containing a half-bottle of Carte Jaune.

The Clicquot City Traveller, the result of a collaboration between the champagne house and the houses of Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton, is transformed into a delightful handbag in which the essentials, and above all the superfluous, can be slipped.

Carte Jaune Brut reflects the style of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin. The dominance of Pinot Noir ensures the structure typical of wines from the house in Reims, while a light touch of Pinot Meunier completes the roundness. Chardonnay lends elegance and finesse, necessary for the perfect balance of a cuvée made from a blend of some 50 to 60 different crus.

The traditional structure of Cuvée Brut Carte Jaune is made up of 50-55% Pinot Noir, 15-20% Pinot Meunier and 28-33% Chardonnay. The blend includes a particularly high percentage of reserve wines from several harvests (5 to 6 on average): from 25 to 35%, sometimes up to 40% to ensure the longevity of the Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin style.

These reserve wines, the oldest of which are up to nine years old, are kept individually, respecting the origin of the vintages and years.

Carte Jaune Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin has a beautiful golden-yellow color, with abundant fine mousse.

This Brut has a powerful nose, initially fruity (white fruit, dried fruit), then vanilla and brioche.

On the palate, the attack is frank and dynamic, then gives way to a fruity harmony. The wine has a certain structure, which places it in the family of structured, vinous Bruts.

Carte Jaune Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin stands out for its remarkable aromatic persistence, with notes of both fruit and spice.

It offers an optimal balance between finesse and power.
