The Perfect Match Champagne Gift Basket
Buying a new house, the birth of a child, or an engagement are all wonderful accomplishments – celebrate with a glass (or two!) of Veuve Clicquot (vuhv klee ko). Veuve is the French word for “widow.” Madame Clicquot, née Ponsardin, was a French business woman. She became a widow at age 27 and took over her late husband’s wine business. She became known at the “Grand Dame of Champagne,” hence the name Veuve Clicquot. The Perfect Match Champagne Gift Basket is a creative and unique gift basket for weddings, housewarmings, engagements, or closing a business deal.
Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut Champagne speaks for itself. This pale-yellow champagne has flavors of fresh apples and peaches with hints of vanilla. The scent of fresh bread dough and pecans make it an exceptional pair with poached prawns or during an elegant brunch. The complexity of this champagne prompted us to keep this basket clean and simple: A silver serving platter with two champagne flutes. This is a perfect ‘His & Hers’ basket because of the two bottles in comparison to one. You will receive one 750ml bottle of Veuve Clicquot along with one 375ml bottle as well.
Founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot-Muiron, the Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin French Champagne House specialized in producing premium products. This champagne house plated a significant role in constituting champagne as a notable drink throughout Europe. Veuve Clicquot is believed to have been the first modern champagne because of the method of which it is produced.
