Regarding the Champagne Veuve Clicquot Extra-Brut Extra old
VEUVE CLICQUOT's Extra Brut Extra Old was created from reserve wines only, soaking up the essence of Carte Jaune to reveal it in a new light. It is a totally innovative champagne that blends the best of its heritage.
Blended from several vintages for their freshness, opulence and structure, this champagne illustrates the full-bodied richness of reserve wines. With a low dosage, in Extra-Brut, the cuvée shares the characteristics of Carte Jaune, sophistication and purity, opulence and freshness, to exalt them to their paroxysm.
On the palate, the attack is as powerful as it is silky. Freshness, minerality and purity are then present. On the palate, they unite to reveal a parculiarly long finish, enhanced by saline touches.
VEUVE CLICQUOT's Extra Brut Extra Old Champagne offers both the freshness expected of an aperitif and the depth required to accompany a dish such as guinea fowl, lobster, or suckling pig...
