La Grande Dame Rose 2012

La Grande Dame Rosé 2012 is a solaire vintage champagne, expressing a great elegance. This cuvée has a beautiful salmon pink color and coppery sparkle. On the nose, we discover floral notes, evolving towards warmer, more spicy notes. In the mouth, after a sharp attack, it is elegant and silky. It's a complex, lively wine, with a pleasing and lasting finish.

By now, Veuve Clicquot has become a household name. Known for its distinctive yellow label the world over, the Maison is a ubiquitous symbol of luxury and celebration. The most elusive and exclusive of the Veuve Clicquot lineup is of course their tête de cuvée: La Grande Dame. Created in 1962 and launched in 1972 to celebrate the bicentenary of the House, La Grande Dame is a wine that is both a tribute to Madame Clicquot Ponsardin and the reflection of the Veuve Clicquot terroir.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2012 La Grande Dame Rosé is based on the same blend as the 2012 Blanc but with 13-15% still red wine from Bouzy. A Champagne of polish and sophistication, the 2012 exudes class. Crushed red berry fruit, blood orange, mint, spice and rose petals open first in the bouquet before the textural richness of Pinot takes over as the wine fleshes out on the mid-palate and finish. This is beautifully done." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The 2012 Brut Rosé La Grande Dame is the finest wine I've tasted from Veuve Clicquot in several decades. Offering up aromas of red berries, bee pollen, orange zest and freshly baked bread, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, with a deep core of fruit and a vibrant, tightly coiled profile, concluding with a penetrating, sapid finish. This isn't the muscular, powerful Clicquot style of yesteryear, but it's a compelling effort in a fine-boned, more polished register." -William Kelley

Decanter

D 95
"The new 2012 vintage of Veuve Clicquot's top rosé sweeps in full of dynamics and detail, the 13% proportion of red wine bringing a succulent red apple, rose and poached strawberry fragrance to 2012's finessed, narrowing build. There's an intriguing smoky/reductive streak at present too, setting off the fruit-forwardness and creamy undercurrent with a touch of drama and energy. This has the volume and immediacy to enjoy now, but even more impressive is the precision and build of a truly cellar-worthy rosé. 92% Pinot Noir from Äy, Verzenay, Verzy, Ambonnay and Bouzy (13% as red wine from Bouzy), 8% Chardonnay from Avize and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger."

Wine Spectator

WS 95
"A firm, chalky version, with structure and texture similar to stiff lace—defined but detailed. Features flavors of blood orange, strawberry preserves, almond biscotti and minerally oyster shell and smoke accents that are finely woven, rewarding the drinker with greater expression as this opens in the glass and on the palate. Lightly spiced, lingering finish. Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay."

Wine Enthusiast

WE 95
"Maturity gives the wine toastiness while retaining the background of fine fruits and texture. It is an impressive Champagne, as always: rich while also balanced, with a touch of minerality."
