La Grande Dame Rose is the Veuve Clicquot House’s rarest wine from Pinot Noir grapes. La Grande Dame Rose combines an extraordinary aromatic complexity of intense, powerful and noble notes with a full-bodied and exceptionally smooth and long finish. The initial note reveals a saline, mineral background, followed by notes of red fruits including Morello cherry, wild strawberry, and red currant, finished with toasted notes of hazelnut, cocoa bean, and sweet spices. In the mouth, it is plump and full of substance. The texture is crisp and silky. The tannins are still present, calling for a cuisine with texture to bring out the best in this wine. The tannins already very well integrated and can be excpeted to blend in still further over the coming years. The finish is long and coasts the palate.
