A special release of La Grande Dame from the 2012 vintage, with the label created by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The wine is made from 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay from six different Grand Crus, with 6 grams of residual sugar per litre.
The nose shows acacia flower, citrus peel, brioche, redcurrant and classic mineral, chalk notes, alongside vanilla and creaminess that evoke fresh Viennoiserie with a slight overtone of smoke. The palate reveals chalky depth and lovely generosity, but in a very streamlined, direct and fresh fashion, with something stony, chalky and direct at its core.
The finish is dry and salty. The wine is known for great depth and complexity, especially with ageing.
