A rare opportunity to acquire a genuine bottle of 1966 Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Vintage Brut Champagne, remaining within my family since it was originally acquired.
The bottle has never entered the secondary market and has been carefully stored on its side, wrapped in protective bubble wrap and kept in a dark cupboard for many years.
Condition
Original unopened bottleFamily owned since newOriginal foil capsuleOriginal labels with age-related wear consistent with its ageGood fill level for a Champagne approaching 60 years oldCarefully stored horizontally in dark conditionsWith England reaching the World Cup semi-finals, the connection with the iconic year of 1966 makes this a particularly evocative collector's piece.
Please note that this bottle is offered as a vintage collectible. Although it has been carefully stored and remains unopened, due to its age no guarantee is given regarding the condition, quality or drinkability of the Champagne. The photographs form part of the description.
Collection / Postage
Collection is welcome from Market Deeping, Lincolnshire.
Alternatively, the buyer may arrange and pay for an insured specialist courier, or I am happy to send by an appropriate tracked and insured delivery service at the buyer's cost once cleared payment has been received.
I would be delighted if this bottle of Champagne found a new home with a fellow Champagne enthusiast or collector who appreciates its history and provenance.
Please contact me if you require additional photographs or further information.
