Description
| Notes | |||
| "Clicquot's signature non-vintage Brut is loved all over the world for its crisp, full flavors, consistent quality and celebratory yellow label. This classical dry Champagne is a blend of two-thirds black grapes (Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier) for body, balanced with one-third Chardonnay for elegance. It has a fine persistent sparkle and golden Champagne color." —winemaker |
| Critical Acclaim | |||
| "Tightly knit, focused by racy acidity and a streak of minerality, this offers subtle notes of white peach, anise, biscuit and kumquat. The refined finish echoes a smoky note." —Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator "Very light straw color. Mild mousse. Soft, pleasing bouquet is dominated by a green apple character, with additional notes of smoke and earth. Seems to be very well made on the palate, with a nice citrus and apple character. It's a tad sweet, with good acidity, and nice overall balance. This Champagne has a strong palate presence. The finish is quite long with a honeysuckle note." —Executive Wine Seminar (The Wine Advocate) "Light gold. Musky orchard fruits and dried fig on the mineral-accented nose. Fleshy and broad on the palate, offering smoky pear and nectarine flavors and a hint of honey. Finishes on a gently spicy note, with very good cling and a touch of bitter lemon pith. Things have definitely begun to turn around for this bottling, which had been lagging behind the winery's vintage offerings for some time." —Josh Raynolds, Vinous |
