Madame Clicquot was an audacious woman. When her husband died in 1805, she took over the reins of the business at 27 years old, with one tireless vision – “Only one quality, the finest”. With its equilibrium that tends towards sweet and fruit flavours, Veuve Clicquot Demi-Sec is perfectly suited for dessert – paired with millefeuille, vanilla, pears with caramel or even blue cheese. ### Product Description Demi-Sec is predominantly Pinot Noir (40-45%), which gives the champagne its fundamental structure. The pursuit of very distinct fruit flavors means that there is a higher level of Meunier (30-35%) in the blend than would typically be found in Yellow Label, for example, and Chardonnay completes the blend (20-25%). The inclusion of 30-45% reserve wines ensures the consistency of the Veuve Clicquot style. Tasting Notes On the nose: It is rich in the scents of ripe fruit (candied fruits, berry liquor), with hints of toasts and brioche.et toasties. On the palate: In the mouth, the wine displays both roundness and mellowness, combined with a delightful freshness due to its gentle acidity. The aromas of ripe fruit are very noticeable.
