Veueve Clicquot Yellow Label, Half Bottle

[hotwine]

This non-vintage champagne in the 375 ml size is perfect as a little celebratory wine for two. It provides four flutes, each filled half-way; two glasses each, in other words. The wine is clean and crisp, with subtle notes of lemon pound cake and fresh-cut daisies. About $20-22 retail, but many wine shops periodically feature specials on it, when it can be purchased for $12-13. We keep one chilled in our little fridge of "ready whites", just in case an event occurs that's worthy of celebration.
The current calf crop looks promising, so that's reason enough for us....
