Tasting Notes
Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old 4 offers a deep and layered aromatic profile — think dried citrus peel, toasted brioche, chalky minerality, and hints of vanilla bean. The palate is precise and structured, with flavors of lemon curd, roasted nuts, honeycomb, and saline minerality. The mouthfeel is tense yet creamy, finishing long, dry, and incredibly refined.
