Taittinger的歷史始於20世紀初,堪稱是世界上最享負盛名的香檳之一。葡萄園佔地 288 公頃,包括 37 個不同的葡萄園。以面積來說,Taittinger是香檳區的第三大酒莊。

Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs可說是Taittinger風格的最佳示範,永遠是年份特釀。採用 100% Chardonnay釀造,來自 5 個特級園,包括Avize、Chouilly、Cramant、Oger及Mesnil-sur-Oger。它只採用第一次壓榨的葡萄汁釀造,一小部分(5%)在全新的橡木桶中陳釀,創造出非常優雅細緻的烘焙風味。完成瓶中二次發酵後,Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs會在Saint-Nicaise下方,白堊土質的地下酒窖保存長達 10 年,以時間成就風土的最高榮耀。

2012年的Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne一推出就展現出美麗的氣質,散發出甜甜的金色果園水果、牛角包、桃子和榛子的香氣。酒體中等至濃郁,是一款味道豐富、口感濃厚的Comtes,讓人聯想起輝煌的2002年。

這是一款美妙而精緻的白中白香檳。層次豐富、複雜,有檸檬蛋黃醬、粉筆、榛子、糕點、烤蘋果和杏仁牛角包的香氣。結構緊密,氣泡幼細得幾乎難以察覺,以美味的鹹感收結。美麗的香檳。現在喝或窖藏。


The history of the Taittinger Champagne House began in the early 20th century. It is one of the most prestigious champagne in the world. The vineyards cover 288 hectares of vines and include 37 different crus. Taittinger is the third largest vineyard owner in the Champagne region.

The Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs is the finest example of the Taittinger House style and is always a vintage cuvée. It is made with 100% white grapes from the 5 villages with a Grands Crus classification for the Chardonnay grape (Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Oger, Mesnil-sur-Oger).

This cuvée is created using juice from the first press only. A small percentage (5 %) of the blend is aged in fresh oak barrels to create the very delicate balance of toasted notes in the final wine. Taittinger knows it must be patient with these great Chardonnays, which are the crowning glory of its terroir; the Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs remains for up to 10 years in the chalk quarries beneath Saint-Nicaise, before emerging to ignite and delight the palates of wine-lovers.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 95+)

The 2012 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne is showing beautifully out of the gates, offering up demonstrative aromas of sweet golden orchard fruit, buttery croissants, peach and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and enveloping, it's a rich, textural, vinous Comtes somewhat reminiscent of the brilliant 2002. 

(James Suckling's rating: 99)
This is a fantastic and refined Blanc de Blancs. So layered and complex, with lemon curd, chalk, hazelnuts, pastries, baked apples and almond croissants. Structured and tightly wound, with almost imperceptible bubbles. Delicious salty notes at the end. Beautiful. Drink or hold.
