Veuve Clicquot Vintage Rose 2012

Veuve Clicquot Rosé Vintage 2012 is the first Vintage to be aged in wood barrels. It intensifies the natural aromas of wines and adds some spicy notes on the palate.

As with every vintage, this wine is a reflection of the year's weather and climate. 2012 ended wonderfully with the grapes maturing in ideal conditions. The harvests, grouped together throughout Champagne, took place between mid-September and early October, in perfect weather. Naturally then, 2012 was declared a Veuve Clicquot Vintage. New to this 2012 Vintage: 5% of the wines were produced and aged in wooden casks from forests in Central France, from Allier and Vosges. This was to increase the complexity and aromatic richness of our Vintages, our gourmet wines. These cask-aged wines act as the spices for the blend.
