TASTING NOTES

Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé NV is a masterful expression of innovation and elegance, celebrating over 200 years of rosé champagne craftsmanship. Inspired by Madame Clicquot’s visionary approach in 1818, this champagne revolutionized rosé production by blending still white and red wines rather than relying on simple coloration techniques. This pioneering method created a rosé of exceptional depth, complexity, and character that remains a hallmark of the House’s style.

This distinctive Brut Rosé is crafted with a blend that includes 30-45% reserve wines, ensuring remarkable consistency and maintaining the iconic Veuve Clicquot profile year after year. The nose reveals a vibrant bouquet of fresh red fruits such as raspberry, wild strawberry, cherry, and blackberry, elegantly layered with biscuity aromas of almonds, apricots, and brioche. On the palate, it is full-bodied and deliciously fruity, delivering intense flavors of juicy ripe strawberries and cherries that create a harmonious balance of elegance and personality.

As the first known blended rosé champagne, Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé NV stands as a true symbol of audacity and refined craftsmanship. It is the instinctive choice for memorable celebrations, offering a fresh and lively first impression followed by a rich and satisfying finish.

  • The 1st known blended rosé champagne, redefining tradition with innovation
  • Reserve wines (30-45%) ensure consistent quality and signature House style
  • Intense, fruity, and perfectly balanced with vibrant red fruit and biscuity notes

Experience a champagne that combines history, passion, and sophistication in every glass, perfect for those seeking a premium sparkling wine with character and finesse.

Scores

96/100

Expressive, with aromas of white peach, red apple and lemon zest together with some white flowers and spice. Subtle brioche. Very bright and energetic on the youthful, chalky and very long palate. A bargain at this price and a wine that will continue to evolve in bottle.
