2013 Champagne Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Vin de Pays d'Oc smoke and savory herbs flesh98 points, Vinous"The 2013 Comtes de Champagne captures all the pedigree of this great vintage in its energy, depth and vibrancy. Lemon confit, dried flowers, chamomile, spice and crushed rocks all race across the palate. Passionfruit, ginger, marzipan and mint appear later, filling out the layers beautifully. Harvest took place in October in what has become the exception rather than the norm in Champagne." Antonio Galloni November 2023
