Taittinger Champagne Blend Champagne Brut Millésimé 2000

Winemaker's Notes:

Stark perlend, von blassgelber Farbe. Sein Bukett ist ausgesprochen fein, entfaltet intensive Aromen nach weissen Blüten und mineralischen Spuren, Auszüge von Zitrusessenzen und frisch gebackenem Brot. Frisch und anhaltend im Abgang.

taittinger :

Champagne Taittinger is one of the few remaining family owned and operated Champagne houses. The firm is distinguished for its extensive vineyard holdings of 752 acres, including prestigious Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims regions. Unlike most large houses, Champagne Taittinger relies primarily on estate grapes for its portfolio of Champagnes. Also unique are the higher proportion of Chardonnay in its wines that gives Taittinger its signature style, and the time devoted to aging the wines before release—most often greatly exceeding the legal requirement, in a practice that also has become a Taittinger hallmark. Distinguished for its extensive vineyard holdings of 752 acres, including prestigious Grand Cru vineyards. Highest-quality production: exceeding minimum aging for all cuvées, high percentage of estate grapes, sustainable practices. Uses a higher proportion of Chardonnay grapes in its blends than other large houses—Taittinger’s unique personality. Critical acclaim: consistently outstanding (90+) scores, worldwide recognition among connoisseurs Read less

Wine Enthusiast ReviewSoft and toasty, this wine is green, fresh and relatively lightweight for a Taittinger Champagne. There are attractive green plum flavors and a fresh, definite acidity to the finish.

Full-bodied and rich, this evokes hazelnut, vanilla, toasted brioche and coffee notes. Though balanced on the soft side, This is well-integrated and refined in texture. Drink now through 2012. 454 cases imported. -BS ** SOLD OUT **
