Tasting Notes & Experience
A luminous copper-rose Champagne bursting with aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, and cherry, layered with notes of biscuit, almond and citrus zest. The palate is rich yet poised, balancing luscious red fruit with hints of spice, saffron and pastry cream. Silky in texture, structured by Pinot Noir and enlivened by elegant freshness, it lingers in a long, graceful finish.

Craftsmanship & Story
In 1818, Madame Clicquot defied convention to create the world’s first blended rosé Champagne by uniting still red Pinot Noir wine with her celebrated Yellow Label cuvée. More than 200 years later, that same spirit of invention defines the House. Composed from 50–60 crus and up to 45% reserve wines, the Rosé is aged for at least three years in the historic crayères cellars of Reims, developing its depth, silk and signature Veuve Clicquot structure.
Special Features
The addition of 12% still red Pinot Noir wine from Bouzy imparts its distinctive fruitiness and rosé tint. Pinot Noir provides power and spice, Chardonnay brings finesse and freshness, while Meunier rounds out the blend with supple fruit. This complex assemblage delivers balance, texture and a vibrant finish that is both celebratory and profoundly refined.
