Champagne Taittinger - Comtes de Champagne Grands Crus Blanc de Blancs 2012

 

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2024
(around 210 euros per bottle)

Aspect

Gold, brilliant with refined bubbles.

Nose

Delicious sensuality around outstanding aromas of white fruits, candied citrus fruits and white flowers, subtly roasted, signatures of the Chardonnay harvested by hand in 2012 in the Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs (Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger).

Palate

The tension, highlighted by the minerality of the chalk, unveils an endless fullness, delicately creamy, result of 8 years of ageing of the bottles on laths, before disgorgement.

With this Comtes de Champagne Grands Crus Blanc de Blancs 2012, Alexandre Ponnavoy, cellar master, has been perpetuating the inimitable style of the Champagne house Taittinger.
