Veuve Clicquot : Brut Carte Jaune Ice Box

A case inviting you to relish a fruity and harmonious Brut Champagne on the go

The estate

An emblematic reference among the finest Champagne references, the Veuve Clicquot Champagne house built its reputation thanks to one woman: Madame Clicquot. In just a few years and at the end of the 18th century, Madame Clicquot established herself as the "Great Lady of Champagne" and invented the riddling table while always boasting her motto: "Only one quality, the finest". The world-famous Veuve Clicquot Champagne House produces vintages with a vinous style and stands out due to its bottles, recognisable at first glance, which are adorned with a yellow label.

The vineyard

Veuve Clicquot owns 390 hectares and is one of the largest vineyards in Champagne. This vineyard is also exceptional in its quality as it is spread over 12 of the 17 Grands Crus and 20 of the 44 Premiers Crus of the Champagne region.

The wine

The Ice Box Brut Carte Jaune enables you to enjoy a new on-the-go experience! Once unfolded, the box becomes a reusable ice bucket that will keep the peach and lemon aromas of Brut Carte Jaune at perfect temperature.

The blend

A true reflection of the House's unique know-how, Veuve Clicquot's Brut Carte Jaune is a Champagne wine that comprises 50 to 55% Pinot Noir, 28 to 33% Chardonnay and 15 to 20% Pinot Meunier.
