Regarding the Champagne Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Blanc 2012 by Yayoi Kusama
Tribute to Madame Clicquot, Cuvée de Prestige La Grande Dame from Maison VEUVE CLICQUOT is celebrated by Yayoi Kusama. This iconic japanese artist has reinterpreted the bottle as well as the box, the drawing inspiration comes from her signatures: the flower and the peas.
Grande Dame is an ode to Pinot Noir. Following 8 years of cellar aging, vintage 2012 offers a great minerality and delicacy, together with a great nicety.
The 2012 blend is mainly sourced from historical Grands Crus of the Maison, with 90% of Pinot Noir and 10% of Chardonnay. The nose unveils white flower notes, followed by pear, apple and almond aromas. The palate is complex and offers a silky texture.
La Grande Dame 2012 represents the quintessence of the style Veuve Clicquot, and reaches the paroxysm of refinement, without losing its legendary power.
This champagne offers a great elegance and is delicious with vegetables and fresh fruits. Its aging potential is huge, at least ten to fifteen years…
