Veuve Clicquot's Vintage Champagne is one of life's special treats. This week on the Classic Wines Minute Brian Freedman visits with Charles Curtis, the director of wine and spirits education for Moet Hennessy, to learn more about the qualities of vintage Champagne. Join us to learn what food pairings go well with Champagne, how long to keep vintage Champagne, and the complexity that vintage Champagne has on the nose and the palate.

There are few food and wine pairings better than Champagne and...well, everything! From light hors d'oeuvres to the rich, hearty foods we eat during the holidays, no wine in the world compliments a wider variety of dishes than Champagne. In this episode of The Classic Wines Minute, we visit Charles Curtis, Moët Hennessy's Director of Wine and Spirits Education, for a special tasting of Veuve Clicquot's finest cuvées.
