VEUVE CLICQUOT EXTRA-BRUT EXTRA-OLD WITH PARMESAN
Structured and complex. Strong and nutty-flavored. Parmesan cheese and Extra Brut Extra Old strike a chord in their shared complexity.
On the palate, Parmesan’s strength recalls the depth of blend of Extra Brut’s reserve wines. Its dried fruit and salty nut nuances resonate with those in the Champagne.
Serve in small pieces, without bread, to appreciate the full flavors of this match.
Hard cheese, natural crust. Medium to long maturation. Whole milk. Cow’s origin. Italy.
