Description
The Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old champagne is the new innovative champagne from champagne house Veuve Clicquot. The wine is called Extra Brut because the dosage is limited to 3 grams of sugar per liter (read: less sugar). This amount achieved the optimal balance between crisp purity and creamy softness. You also experience both dimensions with every sip of this champagne. For comparison: regular champagne from Veuve Clicquot has a dosage of 10 grams per liter. The name Extra Old comes because this is a special assembly of 8 different reserve wines: 1990, 1998, 1999, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2014. After 3 years in barrel, this unique composition has undergone an additional 3 years of maturation (in a total of 6 years) and after the disgorgement the champagne was given an extra year of rest.
Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old has a carbon dioxide pressure of 4.5 bar. For comparison: a regular champagne bottle has a pressure of 6 bar. It makes the Extra Old Extra Brut a bit more refined in terms of mouthfeel. It is a multivintage or nonvintage champagne (100% reserve wines) with a good storage potential. This Veuve Cliquot Extra Brut Extra old is therefore the 3ème Cuvée
