2012 Champagne Veuve Clicquot, La Grande Dame, Brut Size:150cl The big challenge in St

The big challenge in St Emilion was to retain freshness in the face of the high alcohol and high tannins

we are forced to agree

This is one of the firmer and denser wines in the range

with a hint of a savoury element but still undeniably graceful

you’ll find ginger-syrup sweetness

2012 Champagne Veuve Clicquot, La Grande Dame, Brut Size:150cl The big challenge in StThe 2012 La Grande Dame is a pretty wine, but it is starting to show the first signs of aromatic development. Thats not necessarily a bad thing, but it is something readers should keep in mind when deciding when to open this. I would not push my luck on aging. Dried pear, ginger, crushed flowers and spice fill out the layers nicely in a gentle, open knit Champagne to drink over the next 5 10 years. Drink 2023 2030
