Brut Rosé 750mL in the Limited Edition Pink Sun Totem Champagne Cooler, Designed with Yinka Ilori
The Sun Totem is the latest chapter of "Chasing the Sun," Veuve Clicquot's collaboration with British-Nigerian artist and designer Yinka Ilori, known as the "architect of joy." Ilori reimagined the calabash, the traditional African gourd vessel, as a sculptural, portable champagne cooler, here in a blush-pink edition patterned with his golden sunbursts and hot-pink dots to match the rosé inside. Knitted in 3D from upcycled materials and fitted with a strap and a rounded cap, it keeps a bottle chilled for up to 90 minutes, wherever the celebration takes you.
Inside is a 750mL bottle of Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé, heir to the very first blended rosé champagne, created by Madame Clicquot in 1818. It starts from the Yellow Label blend, Pinot Noir for structure, Chardonnay for freshness and Meunier for roundness, drawn from 50 to 60 crus with up to 45% reserve wines, then gains its colour and red-fruit depth from a measured addition of still Pinot Noir red wine. Aged on the lees, it is bottled at 12.5% ABV.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Cherry, strawberry, raspberry and blueberry, with biscuit, spice and a twist of orange peel. Palate: Rich and structured, with red fruit, pastry, toast and a touch of gingerbread from the lees aging. Finish: Long and elegant, balancing freshness with Pinot Noir depth.
