Product information

Fresh and delicate Veuve Clicquot Demi-Sec is perhaps the House's most "classical " champagne. From the close of the last century through to the early 1900s, there was a definitive preference for sweeter champagnes.

'Only one quality, the finest'. This is the motto of the House of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin, founded in 1772. This cuvée's pronounced sweet character is the perfect choice to end any meal.

My new favourite!

In the past I've always liked Veuve Clicquot Brut but now my taste has changed and I have been finding that any Champagne labelled Brut a bit too acidic. Maybe taste changes with age! I tried this today and it's lovely. I was worried it may be too sweet but it wasn't. I have ordered some more in the hope that there may be things in the future we can celebrate. I hope Ocado continues to stock this.

My favourite champagne

I'm so please Ocado have started stocking this. Demi Sec isn't as popular in this country for some reason but is drunk much more widely in France. I prefer it to Brut - it's by no means sweet, it's just not quite as dry, subtle difference. Out of all the Demi Sec champagnes I've tried, this is, in my opinion, the best!

This demi sec is fantastic. Much smoother than most champagnes, it goes down a little too easy!
