Veuve Clicquot Brut Carte Jaune

Yellow Label is the signature of Veuve Clicquot’s quality and style, recreated every year thanks to our priceless collection of reserve wines. Its brilliant yellow label reflects the champagne’s bright personality and impeccable winemaking credentials.

Grape Varieties: Pinot Noir (50-55%), Chardonnay (28-33%), Pinot Meunier (15-20%).

Tasting Notes: Golden yellow. Very fine bubble. Fruity (Peach, Mirabelle Plum, Pear). Vanilla. Toasty (Brioche). Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label manages to reconcile two opposing factors - strength and silkiness - and to hold them in perfect balance with aromatic intensity and a lot of freshness. This consistent power to please makes it ideal as an aperitif, and perfect as the Champagne to enjoy with a meal.

Vinification: Champagne Veuve Clicquot Brut Carte Jaune is the result of a blend of reserve wines – 30 to 45% – produced from grapes from 50 to 60 different crus. The predominance of Pinot Noir (50-55%) gives it the emblematic structure of Veuve Clicquot champagnes, while Chardonnay (28-33%) brings the elegance and delicacy of a perfectly balanced wine. A small percentage of Pinot Meunier (15-20%) completes the blend. The long aging in our Crayères (minimum 3 years for the Carte Jaune) gives the Champagne silkiness.
