Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Rose
Veuve Clicquot’s La Grande Dame Rosé 2004 Champagne is only produced in very limited amounts from 8 crus selected from Madame’s own vineyards.
The blend comprises of Pinot Noir (64%), Chardonnay (36%)the 2004 Rosé vintage of La Grande Dame has a nose that is full and intense with notes of orange peel, a hint of nuttiness and vanilla. An equally powerful palate with a unique character of red fruit, biscuit and apricot, and a firm, persistent mousse.
“Striking in flavour and profile. A graceful, well-toned Rosé, full of berry, autumn leaves and spice notes enmeshed in a rich texture, all supported by lively acidity. Stylish and beginning to mellow, with a long aftertaste of berry confit. “
