Description
Antonio Galloni: Taittinger's 2002 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes deChampagne is off the charts. I have tasted the 2002 now many times,and it has never been less than thrilling. A vivid kaleidoscope ofpure Chardonnay aromas and flavors opens up in the glass. The 2002is at once incredibly rich yet also totally weightless andimpeccable in its balance. All the classic Comtes notes are there,but with a level of detail and nuance I don’t think I have everseen before. The 2002 is breathtakingly beautiful today, but alsoappears to have the stuffing to age for decades. Personally, Iwould be looking to buy the 2002 in magnums if at all possible.Sadly, there is little wine to go around as 2002 was a very shortcrop. Readers who can track down the 2002 are in store forsomething truly great.
