Champagne Andre Clouet 1911 (750ml)

Once upon a time, a few precious bottles were hidden away in a small cellar for more than 80 years. By a stroke of luck they were found and became the inspiration for a champagne tribute to the Golden Age the Clouet house calls  “One day in 1911”.  Those found bottles were carefully packed with straw, protected in their wooden cases, each bottle was beautifully dressed with a gold foil collar, painstakingly applied by hand.  Belle Époque graphic design on the labels takes one back to the Golden Age of France, a time of prosperity, optimism and creative freedom when the arts began to flourish.  The House of André Clouet invites you to enjoy « One day in 1911 » the revival of a rediscovered gem from one of the best vineyards in the world. Working with the finest craftsmen, we bring you the magical renaissance of champagne production from the 1900s.

Winemaker Jean-Francois Clouet crafts the 1911 Champagne by blending older reserve wines.  Only 1911 bottles of this Grand Cru Champagne are made each year and every bottle is numbered by hand.  It spends more than 6 years aging on its lees before its disgorgement and has a low 6 grams/liter of dosage.
