This 2014 Blanc de Blancs is a focused, linear Champagne built on bright lemony fruit and a vibrant mineral sheen, framed by fine toasty notes and richer apricot undertones. It delivers the serious finesse and tension expected from Taittinger’s ultimate expression, combining 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs with a creamy, layered texture.
The palate offers a voluptuous range of poached apricot, quince paste, and toasted hazelnut, finishing with astonishing length and sweet lemon oil. While it rivals the closed, structured character of the 2013 vintage, the 2014 balances seriousness with immediate accessibility.
Serve this wine chilled with crab or shellfish to highlight its crisp citrus and mineral core.
