Tasting Notes

The 2013 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs is a stunning expression of 100% Chardonnay. It offers a pale golden color and a complex bouquet of white flowers, citrus zest, green apple, and brioche, with subtle mineral undertones. The palate is vibrant and precise, with a fine mousse, crisp acidity, and a long, elegant finish. This is a Champagne of exceptional purity and finesse, with great aging potential. A true masterpiece from Taittinger.

A breathtaking Blanc de Blancs with aromas of lemon zest, white peaches, and acacia flowers, layered with hints of toasted almonds and chalky minerality. The palate is incredibly refined, with a creamy texture, vibrant acidity, and a long, crystalline finish. This is a Champagne of immense class and precision, showcasing the elegance of the 2013 vintage. A must-have for any serious Champagne lover.
