A bottle of 1989 La Grande Dame, the flagship 'prestige cuvée' Champagne from Veuve Clicquot.
'Mid gold, still has great mousse. Has the cedary note of the 1998 but also a quince-like freshness, softened by a yeasty/toasty depth – quince on toast, nutty, celery salt. Toasty and a little reductive (charred toast) on the palate, not as full bodied as the 1998 but persistent and very elegant. Gloriously fresh and vibrant. Toasty and so fresh on the finish. 18/20' Julia Harding MW, Jancisrobinson.com, 2015

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.
