Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 1970 750ml

From Internet,
More mellow and complex on the nose than the 1996. Broad nose and then quite dry on the palate. Less juicy fruit. Just a little dusty and toasty on the palate. Lightly nutty. Even almost walnut skins ¨C just a hint of astringency. But it's still charming.

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.
