Veuve Clicquot Champagne Extra Brut Extra Old 3
The quintessence of yellow Label. The ultimate essence of Veuve Clicquot’s history in a blend 
of its old reserve wines and an unique manufacturing process. According to the tradition of the House, and reflecting its long history of blending expertise, the wines in Extra Brut Extra Old have been aged a minimum of three years in vats, on the lees. Another turn of aging comes in Extra Brut Extra Old bottles, which mature in the cellars for another three years before disgorgement. Reflecting the full-bodied richness of the reserve wines in Extra Brut Extra Old, the blend receives only a very low dosage of 3g/L. The resulting wine shares with Yellow Label its complexity and cleanless, richness and freshness, brought into an even clearer relief.

Perlage

Very fine bubbles.

Colour

Intense color with flashes of gold.

Bouquet

Notes of citrus fruits, white flowers, oriental spices and blond tobacco, giving way to hints of light buttery tones, as well as the usual hints of roasting, coffee.

Flavour

Enveloping and silky, it is energetic and vibrant, with a supple and compact progression, with a very fine, enveloping carbonic. With a warm and nuanced taste persistence, it proposes in the end all the tender nuances of the citrus fruits and then close tonic, savory, above all balanced.

Pairing

Fish
Shellfish
