Did You Know?
The name La Grande Dame was inspired by Madame Clicquot’s nickname: “La Grande Dame de la Champagne.”
TASTING NOTES:
The 2018 La Grande Dame is a very pretty wine that shows the contemporary style that is prevalent here these days. Floral overtones lift a core of citrus fruit, while marzipan, anise, mint, dried pear and spice open with a bit of coaxing. The 2018 is a delicate Grand Dame, as most Champagnes are in a vintage in which yields were exceptionally high. I especially admire the finesse here.
