Regarding the Champagne Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2013
The Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2013, a mythical cuvée, is the quintessence of Maison TAITTINGER.
This champagne is a 100% Chardonnay, from the five villages classified as Grand Cru of the prestigious Côte des Blancs: Cramant, Avize, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Chouilly and Oger.
It is only after a very slow and patient raising period of nearly 10 years in the chalky cellars of Saint-Nicaise that this exceptional cuvée comes into the light.
The opening of this 2013 vintage delivers on all its promises with beautiful precision and rare intensity. The lively bubbles are extremely fine. The nose reveals great freshness. On the palate, the sensation is invigorating, with beautiful effervescence. The finish tightens with notes of ginger and licorice. This delicate champagne reveals its dynamism and the purity of its aromas, revealing the minerality and salinity of the fabulous Côte des Blancs.
Perfect for an exceptional celebration, this champagne will be perfect with a starter based on seafood, fine shellfish or fish.
The flagship of Maison TAITTINGER, their Cuvée de Prestige is one of the finest Blanc de Blancs on the market. Its ageing potential is exceptional.
