Awards and/or Press Quotes
90 Points Gilbert & Gaillard
"Coppery-orange colour. An expressive nose with aromas of strawberry and very ripe wild strawberries. A full-bodied, structured, vinous palate which stays fresh. Length and character define this champagne."
90 Points Wine Spectator
"The impression here is elegant overall, but there's a firm backbone of acidity that's finely meshed with the delicate range of flavors, including white raspberry, spiced plum, biscuit, pink grapefruit zest and a base note of smoky minerality. Drink now through 2017"
FAQs
Non vintage Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label has an optimal drinking window of two to four years from purchase when stored correctly. Once opened, a Champagne stopper and refrigeration will maintain reasonable effervescence and quality for two to three days. The wine does not become unsafe after its optimal window, but the autolytic complexity and dosage balance will diminish. Vintage Veuve Clicquot and La Grande Dame can develop productively for fifteen to thirty years under ideal cellar conditions.
Non vintage Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label should be consumed within two to four years of purchase for optimal drinking quality. Vintage expressions and La Grande Dame, stored in a stable cool cellar at 10 to 12 degrees Celsius away from light and vibration, can develop productively for ten to thirty years. Once opened, quality deteriorates within two to three days regardless of storage method. Veuve Clicquot's disgorgement date, printed on back labels since 2016, is the most reliable guide to optimal drinking timing.
