Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2006

You only have one mother, and this is the gift to show her how much you appreciate everything she’s done for you. Coming from the Taittinger family, you can not go wrong with any type of champagne. If she's not one for Bloody Marys, the two of you can certainly share a glass while eating morning brunch. The nose initially presents a fresh, refined tangerine-like fruitiness. It then develops more mature notes of ripe fruit, raisin pastries and candied fruit. On the palate, the attack is both smooth and very lively. The mid-palate is supple, full-bodied and rich, with flavors of grapefruit. Perfect for a truly special celebration, this champagne would also go very well with a starter based on seafood, shellfish or fish.
