Veuve Clicquot - Brut Champagne NV (750ml)

Veuve Clicquot, a historic house established in 1772, once led the way in Champagne innovation under the stewardship of the Widow Clicquot. However, the current non-vintage offering falls short of its storied legacy. The wine lacks the depth, complexity, and finesse that one would expect from such a reputable name. Its flavor profile is disappointingly bland and unremarkable, seemingly crafted for mass appeal rather than connoisseurship. At its price point, there are far superior alternatives that offer greater character and value. Overall, Veuve Clicquot Brut is a letdown for serious Champagne enthusiasts. It may currently be less bland than a couple of years back when it was at its worst, but that is the best that can be said about this bottle of bubbly yeast.
