La Grande Dame by Emilio Pucci.

EMILIO PUCCI, the ultimate fashion designer for the stars, and LA GRANDE DAME by Veuve Clicquot, the star of Champagne, have created a thrilling reflection of their daring, elegant personalities.

The “Prince of Print” drew his inspiration from the island of Capri to dress LA GRANDE DAME in a limited edition outfit, displaying the colours of the 1996 vintage. This isothermal dress keeps the bottle at the ideal tasting temperature for around two hours and comes with a colourful matching pouch to protect it.

Veuve Clicquot’s “Haute Couture” wine LA GRANDE DAME is the ultimate expression of the House style with her luminous colour, generous aromas and delicate effervescence. This unique, instantly recognisable style is reinvented for every new vintage, just like a fashion collection and is an exclusive blend of eight Grand Crus.

Capri on ice, Capri de star, LA GRANDE DAME 1996 is now ready to be unveiled in her isothermal outfit designed in the colours of EMILIO PUCCI…just as captivating as a Grande Star.

La Grande Dame 1996 is golden in colour with light green accents, fine, light bubbles. Initially the nose is rich and intense, evoking fresh fruit and dried fruits. After aeration, the nose opens up to reveal lightly toasted and mineral notes as well as aromas of mild spices and brioche. On the palate the aromatic complexity of this champagne dominates. The balance between the strength of Pinot Noir and the elegance of Chardonnay grapes has rarely achieved such perfect harmony.

The wine is round and generous on the palate, with a delicate and silky texture and a dynamic, sparkling final edge-very typical of the 1996 vintage. The finish is quite remarkable, seemingly never-ending. This is a wine which constantly evolves once it is opened, revealing a gracious, pure structure, and a promise that it will mature magnificently over time.

1996 is undoubtedly one of the most vibrant versions of La Grande Dame. Already a dazzling choice of aperitif for a special occasion, over the years it will gradually reveal a more assertive personality that will accompany the most refined dishes to perfection.
