Description
Veuve Clicquot was founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot-Murion, but became famous when his son's widow ('veuve') Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin continued the business in 1805. She was a formidable and innovative woman. Her motto 'only one quality, the finest' is still guiding Veuve Clicquot, the second largest champagne house in the world. Madame Clicquot, La Grande Dame, has created many groundbreaking innovations in the champagne world, such as the first rosé and the first vintage champagnes. She also invented the 'pupitre'; this table with slanted holes allowed the bottle to be positioned in such a way that by regularly turning it, the rémuage, the yeast sediment would sink to the neck.
Every Champagne house has one, a gem from the cellars. For Veuve Clicquot it is La Grade Dame. This delicious Champagne owes its name to the great lady who made Veuve Clicquot great. Because she was one of the first female businesswomen in Europe, she was called La Grande Dame.
The 2015 Veuve Clicquot Brut Rosé La Grande Dame champagne is made of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay. Notably, 13% of the blend is made up of red wine from the Pinot Noir grape variety, originating from the historic 'Clos Colin' vineyard. The grapes come from eight Grand Cru vineyards, including Aÿ, Ambonnay, Bouzy, Verzy and Verzenay for the Pinot Noir, and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Avize for the Chardonnay.
Tasting notes:
Color: The champagne has a delicate rose gold hue with vibrant reflections.
Aromas: On the nose the wine offers a harmonious bouquet of red fruits, such as strawberries and cherries, combined with floral notes of rose and violets, and subtle spices such as pepper, nutmeg and cloves.
Taste: On the palate, the champagne presents a refined structure with a perfect balance between freshness and depth. The taste reveals layers of red fruit, supported by a mineral freshness and a long, elegant finish.
This champagne is versatile in food pairing and goes well with dishes such as lobster, oysters, truffle risotto and mature cheeses. Its refined structure and complexity also make it an ideal choice for special occasions and celebrations.
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will also receive a nice discount. You will see your discount immediately when you choose Pick up in Checkout page. We are almost next to the Rijksweg with plenty of parking. Click here for our address.

A blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir (with 13% of red wine), the 2015 Brut Rosé La Grande Dame exhales a complex, elegant bouquet of red berries, flowers, spices, pastry and citrus blossom. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vinous, it’s perfectly balanced with a pinpoint mousse, a delicate core of fruit and an ethereal, long and mineral finish. This lovely rendition of La Grande Dame Rosé could age well over the next decade.

Champagne with a story that never gets old. Veuve Clicquot is so much more than a yellow label.
History of Veuve Clicquot
The story starts in 1772, when Philippe Clicquot founded his champagne house in Reims. But true fame came later, thanks to Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin. She married François Clicquot, who sadly passed away at a young age. At just 27 years old, she took control of the house. In an era where women rarely ran businesses, she made her mark. She became known as “La Veuve Clicquot” – the Widow Clicquot – and grew into an icon of the champagne world.
Under her leadership, the modern method of making champagne bright and sparkling was refined. She introduced the technique of remuage, where bottles are slowly turned so that the sediment collects in the neck. A simple yet brilliant idea that made champagne famous around the world.
Vineyards and location
Veuve Clicquot owns more than 390 hectares of vineyards in Champagne. That’s special, as many houses buy most of their grapes. The vineyards are spread across the best cru villages, including Bouzy, Verzenay and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier are the main grapes here. Together they shape the house style: powerful, fresh and structured.
Most of the vineyards are planted with Pinot Noir. It gives the wines their recognizable depth and character. Chardonnay adds freshness and finesse, while Meunier brings a touch of fruitiness.
Climate and terroir
Champagne sits in the north of France. Summers are cool, winters are mild, and the climate can be unpredictable. Perfect for grapes that shouldn’t get too ripe. The soil is mainly chalk and limestone, which offers great drainage and a mineral edge in the wines. Combined with the changing seasons, this results in grapes with tension and freshness – exactly what champagne needs.
Fun facts about Veuve Clicquot
- The famous “Yellow Label” was introduced in 1877 and became the instant signature of the house.
- Veuve Clicquot was the first champagne exported worldwide, from Russia to the United States.
- In 2010, 168 bottles of 19th century Veuve Clicquot were found in the Baltic Sea – still drinkable and remarkably fresh.
- The house owns one of the largest chalk cellars in Reims, endless tunnels where millions of bottles quietly age.
