The Cuvée Saint-Pétersbourg come from the assemblage of Brut Yellow Label of the Maison Veuve Clicquot. Pinot Noir is predominant (50-55%) and grants structure and strength. 33% Chardonnay grants fineness and elegance, while Meunier (15-20%) gives roundness. This Cuvée is the result of wines coming from 60 different crus. The vins de reserve are, according to the vintage, 25 to 40% part of the blend. After prise de mousse, this wine rests on its yeasts in the cave for 3 to 4 years, then liqueur is added. After disgorging, it rests for 6 more months in order to integrate liqueur to the wine and unveil development notes.
The continuity of the style, tribute to the courage and character of Madame Clicquot who firstly sent this Champagne to Saint-Pétersbourg in 1814, when Russia had its borders closed.
Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin is an important Maison, founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot, coming from a family of bankers and merchants, also owning vineyards. He opened a négoce de vin à l’enseigne Clicquot with the aim of exporting it all over the world: a commercial document form the Maison's archives confirms that the first delivery took place in 1772 and was shipped to Venice. In 1805 François Clicquot left too soon and Madame Clicquot, a 27-year-old widow, became the company's manager: she was one of the first business women in the modern era. In 1810 Madame Clicquot showed the world her creative spirit and she produced the first Vintage Champagne in the world. In 1963 Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin turned into a Ltd. and in 1986 joined the Louis Vuitton Group. The Veuve Clicquot vines are absolutely one of the best in the Champagne region, both for their size and their quality: 382 hectares, comprising 12 out of 17 Grand Cru and 18 out of 39 Premier Cru, which delivers 26-28% of the Maison's provision. The remaining production comes from vine growers in the Champagne region, selected for their quality and linked to the Maison by lifelong aggrements. The Veuve Clicquot style with a strong predominance of Pinot Noir grants the wines structure and strength. Together with fineness and freshness of Chardonnay, the wines acquire the unique style of Veuve Clicquot, distinctive trait of a great Maison de Champagne. The vinous taste reveals the great and perfectly controlled complexity of it.
