TASTING NOTES

The robe is pale gold with luminous highlights, the bead fine and persistent. On the nose, a fresh minerality asserts itself first, then floral notes of jasmine and acacia give way to white fruits — pear, baked apple — and candied citrus: clementine zest, mandarin. On the palate, the characteristic tension of the 2015 vintage unites with the richness of the Pinot Noir: toasted brioche, candied ginger, dark fruits, before a long, saline finish of exceptional nobility.

Terroirs

Drawn from eight Grands Crus, La Grande Dame 2015 is built upon Pinot Noirs from the Montagne de Reims and the Vallée de la Marne, magnified by 10% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs (Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger), the guarantor of its acid structure and ageing potential.

Veuve Clicquot

About this house

Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin is one of Champagne's great historic houses. Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin — the "Grande Dame" herself — revolutionised champagne in the nineteenth century by inventing riddling on the pupitre, gifting the world a wine of unprecedented clarity and precision.

La Grande Dame is the house's prestige cuvée, produced only in exceptional vintages under the direction of Chef de Caves Didier Mariotti. It embodies the founding philosophy: "Only the finest" — an ideal that the 2015 vintage, at once sunlit and tightly wound, carries with rare brilliance.

The perfect pairing

Its fine bead and lively minerality are shown to wonderful effect alongside the golden delicacy of cheese gougères.

The wine's notes of citrus and jasmine mirror the fresh herbs and bright citrus of gravlax — a pairing of elegant precision.

The power of the Pinot Noir and the saline length of La Grande Dame call naturally for the umami depth of truffle-scented poultry.
