Tasting notes
The latest rendition of Clicquot's emblematic NV Brut Yellow Label contains around 35% reserve wines, mostly from the last five vintages, and was finished with 10 grams per liter dosage. Offering up aromas of warm bread, peach, citrus oil and crushed chalk, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a sweet core of fruit marked by a touch of sweetness from its dosage, concluding with a clean, nicely defined finish. Almost 20 million bottles are produced every year.
