Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs

Champagne

Champagne, brut

We served this Champagne during the Connoisseur Week in 2022 also, and the last year has seen it deepen and gather complexity. If you have been holding on to it, I strongly suggest taking another look, as everything has pulled together, with the quince and brioche character more pronounced, along with smoked almonds and bright citrus. A Blanc de Blancs made entirely from Chardonnay grapes sourced from entirely from Grand Cru vineyards in Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger. 9 years on the lees, disgorged April 2021, 9 g/l dosage.

Inside Bordeaux

This vintage in Champagne is generally weak, but for Chardonnay it is very good as in Burgundy. The nose is silky, porous and intensely fruity with green apples, cantaloupe and lime. It is mineral, and the autolysis is clean and elegant with brioche and coffee. The palate is medium-bodied, porous, velvety, intensely fruity, very acidic and beautifully balanced. The finish is long and fruity. It’s lovely now, but could easily be aged for another 10+ years.

WSET 3

Rik og kremet nese med epler, bakt sitron, kalk, mandler, ristet brød, blomster og underliggende eikepreg. Frisk ankomst, kremet midt med presis syre og lang avslutning. En vin som viser mye nå men vil få mer med fire til femten års lagring.

WSET Diploma

idiotisk konsentrert, grønne epler, lyse nektariner, smørbakst, kruttlapp, salt. 
Helt villt smaksbilde, så evig lang og spinnvill syre. Topp bdb.

The nose is fruity with yellow apples, peach, mango and tangerines. It is mineral with limestones and shale. The autolysis is clean and elegant with bun dough and black tea. It is complex, silky and elegant. The palate is medium-bodied, light, airy and silky, while also being a bit creamy. It is intensely fruity, and acidic in a fine balance. The finish is long and complex. It is a lovely Champagne that is great to drink now, but which can be aged for another 10 years. It is slightly behind the 2008 vintage, but far better than the 2006.

almond, minerals, toast, lemon, honey, flint, grapefruit, orange, apple, yellow apple, pear, vanilla, butter, brioche, cream, cheese, tropical, acacia, perfume, mint, dried apricot, raspberry, pineapple, lemon zest and some lime. This is something really elegant with one of the nicest toasts I have experienced. Discrete citrus balanced with lovely nuttiness and minerality. Great balance and concentration done with finesse and skills. I guess this will get even better with more time.

ight golden yellow. Green apples, citrus, lime, toast and some flinty minerals. Fresh acidity. Delicate and well made. Clean with apples, pear, minerals and some grapefruit in the finish. Long.

The nose is fruity with yellow and slightly green apples, and it is citrus like mandarin. The autolysis is clean and with bun dough. It is incredibly appealing and elegant. The palate is lean, but also velvety and silky. It is an intense fruit and a nice balancing acidity. 2004 can often be a little green, but there are no signs of that here. The finish is long fruity and acidic. It is perfect to drink now, but also has a long future. 96 points. // Sep '21: The nose is silky and elegant. It is intensely fruity with green apples, apricots, tangerines and oranges. It is a blend of green and tropical fruits. It is mineral with shale and salt. The autolysis is clean and very elegant with bread dough. The palate is light, silky, creamy, intensely fruity, acidic, mineral and incredibly elegant. It is complex and balanced. The finish is long and complex. This must be among the best Champagnes in this vintage, and at least the best I have tasted. 96 points.

The nose is light, airy and incredibly elegant. It is intensely fruity with yellow and green apples and piel de sapo.

The autolysis is fantastically elegant with coffee and brioche. The palate is porous and light, and intensely fruity. It is mineral and there is high acidity. It is beautifully balanced. The finish is very long and complex. 

This is really one of my favorite Champagnes. TW98

Pale yellow, stunning nose with a predominance of Chardonnay - pine nuts, almond, ripe citrus, white flower and minerality, the palate is beautifully structured with ripe yellow fruit supported by bright acidity, gently roasted notes and a firm mineral finish, very long finish, a high level of complexity, great stuff, still slightly on the young side, should develop really well.
