Veuve Clicquot Rose Ice Jacket 0,75l 12,5%

Elegant, lively, and perfectly balanced, Veuve Clicquot Rosé Ice Jacket is a continuation of the legacy of Madame Clicquot, who created the first known rosé champagne in history back in 1818. To this day, this cuvée retains her visionary signature – power, roundness, and depth, combined with the elegance and liveliness of red fruit.

Characteristics:

This unique Rosé Brut is created by blending grapes from 50 to 60 crus, with up to 45% of the blend consisting of reserve wines. The base is the iconic Yellow Label blend, enriched with 12% Pinot Noir red wine from the village of Bouzy, which gives the wine a rich hue, distinctive structure, and sensual depth. The result is a wine that perfectly balances the fruitiness and strength of Pinot Noir, the delicacy of Chardonnay, and the fullness of Meunier.

This elegant set is complemented by an Ice Jacket—a stylish thermal sleeve that not only protects but also keeps the champagne perfectly chilled, allowing it to be served anytime, anywhere.

Madame Clicquot – Pioneer and Innovator:

Madame Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin, known as the "Grande Dame of Champagne," was one of the first modern businesswomen. After the death of her husband, she took over the champagne house at the age of 27 and devoted herself to innovations that revolutionized the industry. Her name has become synonymous with excellence, and her legacy continues to inspire today.

In 1805, Madame Clicquot, a young widow, took over the reins of the Veuve Clicquot champagne house, founded in 1772. Her courage, determination, imagination, and motto, "There is only one quality—the highest," helped her succeed in a male-dominated world and bring the Veuve Clicquot champagne house to its current renown. Veuve Clicquot champagne is characterized by a consistent style with a predominance of Pinot Noir, which gives it aromatic intensity and a complex flavor. It is the perfect gift to enhance any celebration or special occasion.
