Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame 2015 75CL
The Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame is the prestige cuvée of Veuve Clicquot, the crown jewel among the champagnes of the champagne house. A perfect champagne to celebrate life's grand moments! La Grande Dame was the nickname of Nicole-Barbe Clicquot-Ponsardin, who elevated the champagne house to greatness. This exquisite champagne was produced as a tribute to Madame Clicquot, and the first 'La Grande Dame' was released in 1972.
A champagne of exclusive quality, made from a selection of wines from the historic Grand Crus of Veuve Clicquot, personally acquired by Madame Clicquot. The composition is 92% pinot noir from Grand Cru vineyards in Aÿ, and the Grande Vallee de la Marne and Verzenay, Verzy, Ambonnay, and Bouzy in the Montagne de Reims, and 8% Grand Cru chardonnay from Avize, Oger, and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs.
This champagne is crafted from grapes of the best vintages, sourced from the finest vineyards of the Champagne region, and aged for 6 years in the cellars of Veuve Clicquot. The La Grande Dame 2015 received an excellent rating of 95 points from the Wine Spectator.
