Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut 2011 Review
With an almost perfect balance between sugar and fruit, you can tell how clean and balanced this wine is from the nose alone. The perlage (bubbles) is all finesse, with thin, elegant streams. It is mouthwateringly good, with a nice saline quality running through without sacrificing complexity. If you are looking to ball out, this is one for the books.
