Clicquot Le Grand Dame Rose Vintage - 2012 (750ml) Verduzzo cocoa and vanilla frosting notes95 points Wine Spectator 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. Disgorged October 2019.
