TAITTINGER COMTES BLANC DE BLANC 2011 GIFT VAP sku_2315419 With it's spicy and well-balancedFor a recently disgorged vintage of Comtes the aromatics are surprisingly generous, lots of bright rich lemon, ripe apple and tropical notes like pineapple and yellow plum. The fruit grows more on the palate, with additions of spice, hints of creamy custard and ten years lees ageing has filled out the mid palate with a chalky richness and mineral twist. It finishes elegant and light with a twist of saline. This doesnt have the density of 2008, though
