Veuve Clicquot Demi-Sec is perhaps the House’s most "classical" champagne; from the close of the last century through to the early 1900s, there was a distinct preference for sweeter champagnes. As with all blends of Veuve Clicquot, the Demi-Sec is based on a preponderance of Pinot Noir, which gives the champagne its fundamental structure. Taste: it is supple and full on the palate, while preserving its delightful, inherent freshness. After cellaring for two to three years, the Demi-Sec will take on even richer notes of praline. Appearance: brilliant yellow colour with deep golden highlights. Aroma: ripe fruit with hints of brioche. Grape variety: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay.
