Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Vintage 2012 Champagne Coffret

Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Vintage 2012 Champagne Coffret

VINTAGE BRUT 2012

Vintage 2012 is an expression of a prodigious vintage, in spite of extremely adverse weather.
Despite the damage that led to a fairly modest harvest, the quality is optimal, with great aging potential for the wines. Of course, the 2012 vintage was declared a Veuve Clicquot vintage, becoming the 66th for the Maison since its first vintage in 1810. The uniqueness of the Veuve Clicquot Vintage collection lies in the addition of wines aged in large oak barrels, which bring strength and aromatic intensity. The predominance of Pinot Noir and woody touch bring structure and character, hallmarks of the Veuve Clicquot style.

TASTING NOTES

“On the palate the attack is fresh and frank. First fruit aromas then appear with mirabella tart, candied citrus and hints of roasted pears. Finally, refreshing notes of green hazelnuts and almonds appear.”
