The production of Veuve Clicquot's Vintage Rosé 2015
With the Vintage Rosé 2015 cuvée, Veuve Clicquot marks the 67th vintage since the creation of its first Vintage cuvée in 1810. This vintage embodies the art of blending and aging for which Veuve Clicquot is renowned.
The Vintage Rosé 2015 is composed of 50% Pinot Noir, sourced exclusively from Grand Cru and Premier Cru villages. These grapes bring a characteristic structure and a touch of wineiness. Chardonnay (30%) provides the elegance and finesse necessary for the wine's balance, while Pinot Meunier (20%) completes the blend, adding a touch of roundness.
The addition of 13% still red wine, made exclusively from Pinot Noir from Bouzy, gives this cuvée remarkable color and aromatic intensity. The uniqueness of this vintage also lies in the aging of 10% of the wines in oak casks, which adds complexity with notes of roasting and toast. The result is a rich, powerful, and aromatic cuvée.
