Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 1982 750ml

Winespectator.com,Web Only, 1989
Amazing for its depth and elegance, a wonderful bottle of bubbly, with sharply defined anise, vanilla and spicy pear notes. Richly concentrated and complex, the fine length on the aftertaste keeps you coming back for another glass. Drink now to 1994.

Taittinger is one of the few family-owned independent Champagne houses in Reims. It produces a very classy Non-Vintage blend and complex Vintage Champagnes as well.
Its top Champagne is Comtes De Champagne - first produced in 1952, it is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes from 6 Grand Cru sites in the Côte de Blancs. This is finely aromatic, rich, creamy Blanc de Blancs at its best, though patience is required as the wine should not be approached for at least ten years.
