Veuve Clicquot Caves Privées 1980 Magnum

Veuve Clicquot Caves Privées 1980 Magnum

Veuve Clicquot Cave Privée Brut 1980 is presented in a magnum-size bottle with a wooden Veuve Clicquot box, The Cave Privée has a gentle mousse, enriching foam, which has a lovely nose of butter and vegetal notes - very Burgundian - with nutty, quite open characters beneath.

The palate has a lovely presence: it is steely and youthful, with tight minerality and hints of smokiness and flint.

A blend of 53% Pinot noir, 37% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Meunier.

IWC Silver Award 2009 - Good complexity and a great nose that's clean and biscuity. Crisp palate with hints of mushroom and brioche and a fine finish.

TASTING NOTES

This exceptional vintage cuvée pays tribute to Madame Clicquot & her visionary sprit.

The rare aromatic richness of this wine is the result of a prolonged maturing on lees with a recent disgorgement – a celebration of our art of ageing.
