Comtes de Champagne 2002
Champagne - Maison Taittinger
98/100 Parker
Drinking window: 2019–2040
Commentary by William Kelley: "The 2002 Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut is beginning to drink beautifully; it reveals a vibrant bouquet mingling aromas of pear, candied citrus, and dried fruits with notes of almond paste, brioche, oyster shell, and smoke. On the palate, the wine is broad, generous, and beautifully textured, displaying a multidimensional, multifaceted core, remarkable concentration, and a long, penetrating finish. While refined and precise, this vintage offers a slightly broader, richer expression of Comtes than the superb 2008 tasted just before it; however, it is difficult to choose between them in terms of quality."
