Veuve Clicquot White Label Demi-Sec Champagne NV Sparkling Wine
For those who find Brut Champagne just a little too dry or for anyone looking to extend the celebration over the dessert course, we're proud to introduce the slightly sweeter Veuve Clicquot Demi-Sec. As you would expect for a Champagne emerging from the LVMH stable, this is rich, powerful and stylish. Expertly crafted from more than fifty wines, this silky Demi-Sec has a touch of sweetness perfectly balanced by the crisp freshness. Expect notes of candied citrus fruit, toast spread with Nutella, pear nectar, tarte tatin, brioche, berry liqueur and cream, all of which make it an incredible match for praline, apple pie, crumbles, poached pear and ice cream drizzled with salted caramel or classic French desserts like crème brûlée, îles flottantes and crêpes suzette. The history of this famous Champagne house dates back to 1772 when Philippe Clicquot founded a wine-making business under the name Clicquot. In 1810 this was renamed Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin after the young widow Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin inherited the estate. Ever in pursuit of excellence and innovation, Madame Clicquot used her skills to develop an exceptional wine-growing territory and went on to establish what is today one of the most iconic names in Champagne. Veuve Clicquot's signature style is a fine and elegant balance between freshness and complexity.£8 per 100.00ml
