La Grande Dame Rosé 2008 offers a beautiful pink gold with light copper hues.
It is full-bodied and smooth, then becomes refined with fresh aromas. The Pinot Noir’s generosity resonates beautifully after a slow and long aging in the Veuve Clicquot cellars. The wine shows powerful notes of red fruits (raspberry and strawberry), combined with citrus notes (blood orange, grapefruit), and finally holds a perfect balance between subtle and spicy with notes of red berries, rooibos tea and fine leather.
The attack is delicate and smooth. In full harmony with the nose, fruit outshines the palate and presents intensity in red and black fruits (cherry, strawberry, blackberry and blackcurrant). The strength and youth are carved by long aging notes, dried flowers and smoky notes, presenting an incredible complexity which is worthy of the best Pinot Noir of Champagne.

Steeped cherry and raspberry fruit flavors are accented by tea rose, grated ginger and blood orange zest aromatics in this graceful rose Champagne, in a vinous style. Lively on the palate, with bright acidity and a fine mousse, plus a minerally underpinning of smoke, oyster shell and chalk notes driving the racy, well-spiced finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Disgorged March 2023. Drink now through 2035.

The rosé version of this iconic brand has a strawberry aroma and a toasty flavor from its maturity and its balanced dosage. It is a rich Champagne, textured and with soft acidity. Drink the wine now.

A blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir (with 13% of red wine), the 2015 Brut Rosé La Grande Dame exhales a complex, elegant bouquet of red berries, flowers, spices, pastry and citrus blossom. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vinous, it’s perfectly balanced with a pinpoint mousse, a delicate core of fruit and an ethereal, long and mineral finish. This lovely rendition of La Grande Dame Rosé could age well over the next decade.
