Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

The 2014 Champagne Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne pours a bright medium yellow hue and is very pretty, with a graceful floral perfume as well as notes of brioche and lemon curd. Full-bodied but more linear, the mousse is pillow-like, powdery, and perfumed and is followed by a long finish. I love where this is now. It’s quite complete and pretty already, and it’s a great bottle to drink while waiting on the 2012 and 2013. It’s less obvious as a vintage at this stage, but I do see it improving and developing into a very finessed wine. Drink 2025-2050.

About the Producer

About the Producer

The Champagne Taittinger estate is anchored in the heart of the Champagne region, not far from historic sites where winemaking was already a centuries-old tradition. At the beginning of the 20th century, Pierre Taittinger, captivated by the terroir, founded the house with his brother-in-law. Since then, the Taittinger family has been dedicated to defining the style of Champagne Taittinger wines, prioritizing the elegance and finesse of Chardonnay. Today, Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger, along with his children Vitalie and Clovis, perpetuates this family legacy. Champagne Taittinger cuvées are distinguished by their beautiful aromatic richness, harmonious vinosity, and delicate floral notes, which evolve into nuances of hazelnut and brioche. The house has successfully navigated the ages while maintaining its independence. Among the iconic cuvées, one finds the Taittinger Brut Réserve, a classic and balanced expression of the house style. The Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut, the true flagship of the estate, embodies the excellence and purity of Chardonnay. Among the most sought-after cuvées are the Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut, Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Brut Rosé, and Taittinger Brut Réserve—essential benchmarks for understanding the identity of the house.
