Buy Exquisite Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2013 - Grand Crus - Blanc de Blancs

Experience the pinnacle of Champagne artistry with the Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2013, a Grand Crus Blanc de Blancs that epitomizes elegance, complexity, and exclusivity. Crafted exclusively from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from the prestigious Grand Cru villages of Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Oger, and Mesnil-sur-Oger, this vintage cuvée is the finest expression of the Taittinger House style.

A Testament to an Exceptional Vintage:

The year 2013 was marked by a challenging yet rewarding growing season. A colder-than-average winter with snowfall and freezing temperatures led into a wet spring, delaying flowering until July. However, an exceptionally warm and sunny summer allowed the vines to recuperate, culminating in a late harvest beginning on October 1st. The Chardonnay grapes achieved remarkable maturity, combining notes of white flowers, citrus, and hints of tropical fruits, resulting in a wine that is powerful, structured, and well-rounded with excellent length.

Meticulous Craftsmanship:

- Grape Varieties: 100% Chardonnay

Lees Ageing: 9 years

Dosage: 9 g/l

The Comtes de Champagne is created using juice from the first press only, ensuring the purest expression of the Chardonnay grapes. A delicate 5% of the blend is aged in fresh oak barrels, imparting subtle toasted nuances to the final wine. Patiently matured for up to a decade in the historic chalk quarries beneath Saint-Nicaise, this champagne emerges with unparalleled finesse and complexity.

Tasting Notes:

Renowned wine critic Antonio Galloni praises the 2013 Comtes de Champagne for its energy, depth, and vibrancy. The palate is a symphony of lemon confit, dried flowers, chamomile, spice, and crushed rocks, racing seamlessly across the senses. Layers of passionfruit, ginger, marzipan, and mint unfold gracefully, filling out the wine's texture and leaving a lasting impression.

Exclusivity Defined:

A Comtes de Champagne is a rarity. Strict production criteria and an unwavering commitment to quality mean that this champagne is produced in limited quantities. Since its inception in 1952, only 35 great vintages have been released, each becoming a legend in its own right.

Exclusivity: Limited production ensures that each bottle is a treasured gem.

Cellaring Potential: An exceptional wine that will continue to evolve gracefully over time.
