About this product
Among the five greatest prestige Champagnes ever produced — Taittinger Comtes de Champagne is 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs, aged 10 years on the lees, released only in exceptional vintages. The wine shows extraordinary floral elegance: white blossom, lemon curd, white peach, almond, and a chalky mineral precision from the purest Champagne terroir. At 15-20 years, the wine develops extraordinary honey, brioche, and mineral complexity. A benchmark for Blanc de Blancs at the highest level.

Comtes de Champagne's Blanc de Blancs mineral precision is the supreme partner for raw or simply cooked crustaceans — the wine's chalk mineral character mirrors the langoustine's oceanic sweetness; seaweed butter amplifies the marine mineral connection. The wine's 10+ years of lees aging provides the depth to match luxury shellfish.
