Product details:
Madame Clicquot, known as "La Grande Dame" (Grande Lady) of the Champagne region, achieved numerous innovations to create the finest champagne. Meanwhile, Yayoi Kusama, who has achieved worldwide fame for her multifaceted talents, fueled by her passion for art and creative energy, even in the face of adversity, at a time when it is difficult for female artists to receive proper recognition, has collaborated to create this collection. This collection is the result of a collaboration between these two great women, who continue to influence the world with their bold, unwavering will, innovative, and avant-garde visions. The floral design on the gift box, designed by Yayoi Kusama, evokes the strength and delicacy of Champagne La Grande Dame, as well as the positive energy that embodies her and Madame Clicquot's way of life. The polka dots, a signature design of Yayoi Kusama, symbolize the powerful, popping bubbles of champagne, and their bright image evokes the joy of life. The palate opens with white floral notes of jasmine, honeysuckle, and grape blossom, followed by fruity aromas of apple, pear, and peach, rounded out by fresh almond and frangipane. The complex aroma unfolds on the palate, revealing notes of dried apricot, hazelnut, honey, and candied sugar. The silky texture lends this wine its unique character, revealing the depth and power of aging. It also pairs exceptionally well with vegetables, expanding the possibilities for culinary creations that bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients.
