Comtes de Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

Fresh, vibrant and balanced. Drinking so well in its youth.

Gorgeous BdB that really struck me with its power and intensity. Balanced by a spine of acid and freshness. No oak yet supple, rich, great creaminess and autolytic notes. Layered

Have enjoyed this several times over the past 12+ months and it keeps getting better and better with time.
Perhaps @Antonio Galloni
is right with his praise and I should have stocked up better.

Oh hey. This Comptes talks. It says “I am here” the way landing a proper tours jete feels good I probably messed that ballet spelling. But this wine was lovely and lively and precise.

Our 5 year anniversary bottle...it paired perfectly with oysters.

The 2006 Comtes de Champagne is striking, especially in the way it brings together elements of ripeness and freshness in a hypothetical blend of the 2002 and 2004. Smooth and creamy on the palate, the 2006 is all about texture. There is a real feeling of density and weight in the 2006, qualities I expect to see grow with time in the bottle. All the elements fall into place effortlessly. The 2006 has been nothing short of magnificent both times I have tasted it. Comtes de Champagne remains the single best value (in relative terms) in tête de cuvée Champagne. I suggest buying a case and following it over the next 20-30 years, which is exactly what I intend to do. There is little doubt the 2006 Comtes de Champagne is a magical Champagne in the making.

A happy 2018! Cheers from California.

From magnum. Still somewhat shy but wait a few years, and it will show its pedigree quality.

In a sweet spot already. Why wait.
