The Story

About Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old 2 Champagne

Born in Reims in 1777, Madame Clicquot was the daughter of a baron, meaning that she was excellently educated. In 1798, she married François Clicquot, the son of Philippe Clicquot, the founder of Maison Clicquot. By that time, the business had been in operation since 1772, built on a foundation of family vineyards. In 1805, François passed away. Soon after, his widow decided to take over the business, becoming one of the first businesswomen of modern times.

5 years later, she released the first vintage Champagne in the region, a sign of her prowess and things to come. Under her leadership, the house thrived, perfecting new and innovative techniques, such as the usage of a riddling table for clarifying Champagne. The very first rosé d'assemblage Champagne was created by blending Bouzy red wines with the Champagne. Even at the time, her contributions were recognized and she became known as the Grande Dame of Champagne. Through the years, the house built on her principles, implementing new techniques and improving the production process and the wines. In 1986, the company was acquired by Louis Vuitton.

First crafted in 2013, Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old Champagne is composed exclusively of reserve wines. This cuvée is a tribute to Madame Clicquot that embodies the essence of the iconic Yellow Label. In 2019, a new blend was revealed with the Extra Brut Extra Old 2 cuvée. It comprises 8 of the house's reserve wines ― 1990, 1998, 1999, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2012. Aged for at least 5 years, it's a blend of Pinot Noir (45%), Chardonnay (27%), and Meunier (28%) with an aging potential of 15 years or more.

About Champagne

Champagne has been associated with royalties since the 17th century, still maintaining its glorious reputation.

The French take Champagne seriously, so coming from the Champagne region of France isn't the only requirement that keeps this drink from being "just sparkling wine." The rules of the appellation require specific vineyard practices, particular types of grapes, specific pressing methods, and secondary fermentation of wine.

Tasting Notes

The gold-colored Champagne has very fine bubbles and aromas of ripe fruit and sweet, buttery, almond custard notes. Deliciously dry with citrus notes, it has fine, persistent bubbles.
