ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Veuve Clicquot's Champagne Demi-Sec originates from an assemblage of 50 different crus from the sparkling wine region par excellence, including important Premier Cru and Grand Cru.
Resulting from the typical Champagne blend, i.e., grapes of the Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier varieties, it is complemented by a portion of riserva wines, all in accordance with the proportions that govern the style of the maison. The increased dosage results in a fascinating balance between a veiled sweetness, an enveloping freshness and the aromatic facets that become more and more evident with age.
Golden in appearance with intense reflections and with a harmonious effervescence, this bubbly releases clear sensations of ripe fruit, accompanied by characteristic notes of brioche, joined over time by rich praline and toasted notes. In the mouth, it is characterized by great roundness and freshness, proving pleasantly delicate and fruity.
