Showed well, nothing too exciting but it was in a great spot. Creamy, secondary notes, light mousse.

A lovely, pretty and effervescent Champagne. Slightly towards the sweeter side of things with cherries, strawberries and a lovely fragrance. Beautiful.

I’ve avoided this Rosé Champagne from Veuve Clicquot like the plague. However, time to try it.

It’s classic Rosé style but, light all the way around. It’s quaffable but, at this price point, I’m not giving up my BSR, Ruinart, Drappier etc.. There simply is no wow factor here. For me, all of their cuvées just don’t deliver the quality like other producers in and around their price points.

However, they have a beautiful property and amazing caves.

Very consistent rosé, love the chalky fruit.

Pictures of the grounds and tasting area graphics. They were closed/booked for tours, so we had to manage having glasses on their patio on a beautiful afternoon.

1979 Veuve Clicquot Cave Privee Rose. Red raspberries and cream, earthy/black truffle, a touch of savory herbs. Delicious!!
