Details
An exquisite “necklace” of tiny bubbles tops each elegant glass of Yellow Label Brut. This balthazar bottle is all about celebration and sharing Yellow Label – a perfect balance of strength and finess.
Created for a British market that desired “dry” wines, Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label was trademarked in 1877 and has been used to toast events big and small ever since.

TASTING NOTES:
The signature of Veuve Clicquot's quality and style
Appearance
Tiny bubbles permeate the bright, golden-yellow Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label in the glass.
Aroma
On the nose, aromas of peaches and raisins reflect the grape varietals, while the ageing process results in notes of vanilla and toasted brioche.
Taste
Fresh and full-bodied, Yellow Label Brut is well structured, with a robust acidity and a streak of minerality.

BLEND AND ORIGIN:
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut
This signature champagne gains its structure from the predominant presence of pinot noir (50-55%), roundness from meunier (15-20%) and elegance from chardonnay (28-33%).
The grapes are sourced from 50 to 60 crus, and the blend comprises 25-45% reserve wines that have been aged up to 15 years.
Expert reviews
Lively acidity creates a lip-smacking frame for the flavors of Anjou pear, smoke, preserved lemon and white raspberry in this mineral Champagne.

Expert reviews
Tasted blind. Pale straw gold. Light, complex nose. Good savour. Some smokiness. Really neat and tight. Lots of potential. Some appley acidity and really clean on the end. Very complex on the end. Full of vitality.

Expert reviews
The best-selling Champagne in the U.S. follows the Veuve Clicquot house style of softness and ripeness. It's fruity, with an attractive almond and toast edge that suggests this bottle has seen some age. It's immediately drinkable and fresh with balanced acidity at the end.'

FOOD PAIRING:
Perfect as an apéritif or throughout a meal
The freshness of this champagne will work beautifully with the simple flavours of pan-fried scallops in a citrus relish.
Complement pan-fried red mullet, or a dish of sautéed white-fleshed fish, with the well-structured Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label.
This blend makes a fitting partner for generous slices of strong, crumbly and slightly sweet Comté cheese.
