Questions
Why is it called Veuve Clicquot?
"Veuve" is French for widow. Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin was widowed at 27 in 1805 and took over the house herself, going on to invent the riddling table and build one of Champagne's great names. The label carries her title.
What makes Yellow Label different from other Brut NV champagnes?
Two things: it is dominated by Pinot Noir, which gives it more structure and body than lighter Chardonnay-led styles, and it uses a high proportion of reserve wines — up to 45%, drawn from several past harvests — to keep the house style consistent year after year.
How much do I save on the case of six?
Six bottles bought singly come to £377.94. The case is £340.15 — that's £56.69 per bottle and £37.79 saved, a full 10% off.
How long can I keep it?
Yellow Label is released ready to drink and is at its best within about three years of purchase. Store it lying down somewhere cool and dark, away from light.
Can you deliver it directly to the person I'm gifting?
Yes — enter their address at checkout and add your message. In London it can be at their door within 30–45 minutes, any hour of the day. The recipient must be 18+ with ID for our Challenge 21 check.
