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 Champaign with little-to-no unfermented grape must added at dosage with resultantly low residual sugar and as with all Champagne, may only include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Decanter Magazine classifies 1949 to be a notable older vintage for Champage.
