Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Colorama Pencil Gift Set

Veuve Clicquot Colorama Pencil Yellow Label- One of the world’s most beloved and recognized champagnes, Yellow Label is a signature of the Veuve Clicquot House.

Madame Clicquot knew that color is essential to appreciating a wine, stating that “our wines must be flattering both on the palate and on the eye.” For over 200 years, color has been a source of inspiration for Veuve Clicquot, and its iconic “yellow” is synonymous with the brand. This year, we sketch the world yellow and rose with 3 Colorama limited editions inspired by an artist’s sketch pencil.  

Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is the signature champagne of the House. Dominated by Pinot Noir, it offers a perfect balance of structure and finesse. First, Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label looks beautiful: golden-yellow, with a foaming necklace of tiny bubbles. Next it is so pleasing to the nose: initially reminiscent of yellow and white fruits, then of vanilla and later of brioche. Note the fine balance between the fruity aromas coming from the grape varieties and the toasty aromas, the result of the three years of bottle aging. The first sip delivers all the freshness and strength so typical of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label with a symphony of fruit tastes following (pear, lemon). Here is a true member of the Brut family, well structured, admirably vinous. The lingering aromas echo and re-echo, with each fruit or almond notes distinct. Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label manages to reconcile two opposing factors - strength and silkiness - and to hold them in perfect balance with aromatic intensity and a lot of freshness. This consistent power to please makes it ideal as an apéritif, and perfect as the champagne to enjoy with a meal.

Critical Acclaim

92 James Suckling

This has aromas of grapefruit, citrus peel, quince, toast and almonds. It’s medium-bodied with creamy, fine tannins. Silky texture. Nutty complexity at the end.

90 Wine Enthusiast

This ever-popular Champagne is getting imperceptibly drier. There is a fresh edge to it that is new and welcome. Crisp apple fruits give the wine a lift at the end.
