Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Brut 2006
Champagne, FranceThis Grande Dame is Veuve's prestige cuvée, in homage to Madame Clicquot herself, and it carries with it all the richness of the house style, amplified. The blend is a mix of eight the house's Grand Crus: Aÿ, Bouzy, Ambonnay, Verzy and Verzenay for the Pinot Noir (53%); Avize, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger for the Chardonnay (47%). After seven years on the lees, this was dosed with 8 g/l; my bottle was disgorged in February 2017. Rich, dense and full with toasted brioche, praline, pear and ample smoked spices that season a creamy, weighted, oxidatively-slanting palate, leaving a lingering nougat in its wake. Not shy, nor needs be, this Grande Dame is worthy of its name.Tasted: 04 November 2019Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $269.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
