Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Rosé 2012 750ml
Product Details
La Grande Dame Rosé 2012 is a solaire vintage champagne, expressing a great elegance.
This cuvée has a beautiful salmon pink color and coppery sparkle. On the nose, we discover floral notes, evolving towards warmer, more spicy notes. In the mouth, after a sharp attack, it is elegant and silky. It's a complex, lively wine, with a pleasing and lasting finish.
In 1818, Madame Clicquot crafted the first known "rosé d'assemblage" champagne by blending some of her Bouzy red wines with her white wines. La Grande Dame Rosé respects her vision with 90% of Pinot Noir coming from the Historical crus of our terroir as well as a red wine added to the blend from a single parcel: the Parcell 'Clos Colin' located in Bouzy, a Historical cru terroir.
90% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay, 13% Parcelle Clos Colin (still wine), 8 g/l dosage.
Wine Advocate Review:
The 2012 Brut Rosé La Grande Dame is the finest wine I've tasted from Veuve Clicquot in several decades. Offering up aromas of red berries, bee pollen, orange zest and freshly baked bread, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, with a deep core of fruit and a vibrant, tightly coiled profile, concluding with a penetrating, sapid finish. This isn't the muscular, powerful Clicquot style of yesteryear, but it's a compelling effort in a fine-boned, more polished register. Anticipated Maturity: 2023-2038
