Reviewed November 2023Comprising 85% of production, the NV Champagne Yellow Label Brut is 40% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay, and the rest Meunier, with 35-40% reserve wine. Entirely fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, it spends three years on the lees, and the wine sees 9 grams per liter of dosage, but the house does not disclose the disgorgement date. A golden straw hue, it’s ripe with aromas of yeasty bread dough, peaches, and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied on the palate, it’s ripe and juicy with rounded red berried fruit, a supple texture, a pillowy mousse, and a warming finish. (AF)

The familiar, best-selling Yellow Label Brut is as reliable as always. A white fruit and white flower aroma and a soft palate give an approachable Champagne. It is full of fruit, softened by the dosage. (RV)
Notes
The anchor emblem of Veuve Clicquot was first chosen in 1798 by founder Philippe Clicquot as a cork mark long before labels and it remained in use when Madame Clicquot took the reins in 1805, a symbol of hope and continuity that still represents the house today. The enduring anchor reflects the maison’s commitment to its origins and traditions across more than two centuries.
