Description

A collector's item, a piece of Champagne history, Cave Privée Veuve Clicquot 1982 is quite simply an exceptional vintage.

The 1982 vintage offered very favorable weather conditions. The bunches of grapes came out beautifully in all three grape varieties. The vines, which had not produced for two years, were at their best. Excellent sunshine in September ensured good ripening. Quality is on target.

Cave Privée 1982 is a blend of wines from 9 Grands Crus and Premiers Crus in the Montagne de Reims, Grande Vallée de la Marne and Côte des Blancs regions. The blend is composed of 66% Pinot Noir and 34% Chardonnay. The dosage is Extra Brut, around 5g/l.

This cuvée has a golden color with amber highlights. Its effervescence is light and delicate, and presents itself subtly and slowly.

On the nose, we discover a gourmand champagne, with notes of dried fruit, cocoa, salted caramel and candied citrus.

On the palate, Cave Privée 1982 Veuve Clicquot is surprisingly youthful and lively. There's a lovely minerality that underlines the wine's freshness.

The finish is remarkably complex, unfolding notes of sandalwood and dried apricots.
