Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Vintage 1949 Champagne

Founded in 1772, Veuve is a Grande Marques Champagne, considered to have pioneered the remuage method for removing lees from the bottle after secondary fermentation, thus allowing the production of the clear sparkling wine we recognize today. As a Brut this is a classic, dry style Champagne with little-to-no unfermented grape must added at dosage with resultantly low residual sugar and produced from the 3 main permitted Champagne grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Decanter Magazine classifies 1949 to be a notable older vintage for Champage.
