Vintage details

The Champagne Brut Yellow Label Ice Jacket Personalizzata - Veuve Clicquot is a sans année cuvée, meaning it is non-vintage. This means it is obtained by blending wines from different vintages to ensure continuity and consistency over time. The region's climatic characteristics, with mild summers and cold winters, allow for an ideal balance between acidity and grape maturity, ensuring the freshness and liveliness typical of this Champagne.

Vinification and aging

The cuvée is composed of approximately 50-60 selected Crus: Pinot Noir for structure and strength, Pinot Meunier for roundness and softness, and Chardonnay for elegance and aromatic finesse. After the first fermentation, the wine rests in the bottle for a minimum of 30 months on its lees, a period that allows for the development of complex aromas of toasted bread and brioche. The dosage (addition of a small amount of sugar) is calibrated to maintain a perfect balance between freshness and taste intensity.
