Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé Yinka Ilori 'Sun Totem' Gift Box pairs the house's Brut Rosé Champagne with a limited-edition, sun-inspired cooler designed by artist Yinka Ilori.
Part of Veuve Clicquot's collaboration with British-Nigerian designer Yinka Ilori, the Sun Totem reimagines the calabash as a portable, sculptural cooler in solar-yellow tones with vibrant pink accents. Crafted from upcycled materials using 3D-knitting technology, it keeps the bottle chilled for up to 90 minutes. Inside is Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé — first blended by Madame Clicquot in 1818 — built on the traditional Yellow Label blend with Pinot Noir red wine added for depth and structure, drawn from 50 to 60 crus with up to 45% reserve wines.
