Veuve Clicquot Rich offers a unique and daring tasting experience, specially crafted to be enjoyed over ice. Inspired by the historic tradition of the House, where “Rich” once referred to sweet champagnes made for the British market, this cuvée revisits that heritage with a modern, festive twist. The generous blend dominated by Pinot Noir and enriched with a high proportion of reserve wines reveals a rich and expressive aromatic profile. With its higher dosage, Rich seduces with its luscious texture and fresh, exotic character, perfect for relaxed, convivial moments.
