Trustpilot 4.9 out of 5.0
Veuve Clicquot is known for having one of the largest collections of reserve wine, which they use in many of their non-vintage champagnes, but in 2017 they introduced the "Extra Brut Extra Old" Champagne range, which was to be made exclusively from reserve wine , which means that the champagne will have more depth, character and aging potential.
Since 2017, Veuve Clicquot has launched 3 editions and today we are at the third, hence the name Extra Brut Extra Old 3. and it is made up of reserve wine from 8 extraordinary years: 1990, 1998, 1999, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2014. In addition, it has been aged twice, first in large vats for several years and then in bottle for 3 years before disgorging, after which it has spent another 1 year in bottle before release.
A precise Champagne made for wine lovers with a storage potential of more than 15 years, which brings all the precision and liveliness of a rare and complex Champagne.
Veuve Cliquot's former cellar master Demarville has said that he does not intend for this champagne to be a high-volume production, commenting: "We can't use all the best reserve wines; we need them for the Yellow Label." Therefore, only 30,000 bottles have been produced.
