Yellow Label is the most famous quality; this brut champagne embodies the style of Veuve Clicquot, high in Pinot Noir with a perfect balance of power, aromatic intensity, freshness, and smoothness.
Veuve Clicquot, founded in 1772, rose to prominence under the leadership of widow Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin since 1805. Her motto, "only one quality, the finest," still guides the second-largest Champagne house in the world. The dominance of Pinot Noir (50-55%) provides the structure so typical of Veuve Clicquot, while a touch of Meunier (15-20%) rounds out the blend. Chardonnay (28-33%) adds elegance and finesse. Grapes from no fewer than 50 to 60 different crus go into the Yellow Label blend. To achieve the consistency year after year that makes Yellow Label so instantly recognizable, the blend contains 30-45% reserve wines from previous vintages. The iconic yellow label—now the most recognizable color in Champagne—dates back to 1877 to easily distinguish the then-new brut champagne from sweeter bottles in the cellars. This distinctive label color perfectly embodies the house's pioneering heritage and bold joie de vivre.
