The Garden Gastronomy Experience

His philosophy is a celebration of the environment around him, guided by an authentic "garden-to-plate" approach. Simplicity, freshness, and biodiversity are at the heart of his dishes, thanks to seasonal ingredients grown in the Orti del Castello vegetable garden.

La Grande Dame 2018

Experience the purest expression of Pinot Noir with La Grande Dame 2018, a celebration of Madame Clicquot's unique vision, drive and audacity.

Its deep and precise style is characterized by subtle finesse and freshness, expressed through its salinity. Intense aromas emerge through a delicate scent of citrus - lemon, lime, yuzu - blended with white fruit, enhanced by spring and floral notes.

Garden Gastronomy

In 2021, inspiration from Madame Clicquot's audacious vision and quest for perfection gave birth to Garden Gastronomy, the gastronomic signature of our prestige cuvée La Grande Dame.

This is a collaboration with Michelin-starred Chefs from around the world, who draw their inspiration from sustainable and responsible cuisine and create pairings around the cuvée. A committed, plant-based and colourful cuisine, where vegetables, herbs and fruit take center stage, while meat, fish and eggs are cooked as condiments.
