1998 Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin La Grande Dame Brut | 750ml

The 1998 Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Brut is an exceptional, beautifully aged prestige cuvée crafted as a tribute to Madame Clicquot, the visionary behind the house. After more than two decades of slow evolution, this vintage reveals extraordinary depth, elegance, and refinement—showcasing the mastery and longevity that define La Grande Dame.

The bouquet opens with rich layers of dried apricot, candied citrus, toasted brioche, honey, and hazelnut, supported by subtle floral notes and chalky minerality. On the palate, the Champagne is silky, expressive, and gracefully mature, offering flavors of baked pear, almond cream, warm spice, and delicate sweetness balanced by precise acidity. The finish is long, polished, and beautifully harmonious, reflecting the structure and sophistication of a remarkable vintage.

The 1998 La Grande Dame stands as one of the most captivating mature expressions from Veuve Clicquot—rare, collectible, and ideal for Champagne lovers seeking well-aged prestige cuvée with exceptional finesse.
