Gastronomy
For 250 years, La Maison de Champagne Veuve Clicquot has cast its sunny imprint on its world and won renown for its iconic yellow label, adopted almost a century-and-a-half ago.
In 1805, Madame Clicquot was only 27 years old when she took over the reins of the Maison de Champagne founded in 1772 by the father of her late husband. Visionary and ambitious, she who would be nicknamed the “Grande Dame de la Champagne” was responsible for the first millesime in 1810, the first riddling table in 1816, and the very first blended rosé champagne in 1818. Loyal to this quest for excellence, Veuve Clicquot is proud to pay her a new tribute by unveiling “La Grande Dame Rosé 2012” (90% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay, from historic Veuve Clicquot vintages). This complex new vintage offers a salmon pink robe with coppery reflections and unfurls floral notes evolving towards warm, spicier notes. After a frank attack on the palate, it then expresses all its elegance, lingering on for a good long time. To be discovered in a limited edition gift box, accompanied by the “Parcelle ‘Clos Colin’ 2012” vintage.
