Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2014**
Champagne, France — 100% Chardonnay, Grand Cru
Style:
A refined, crystalline expression of Grand Cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs. The 2014 vintage combines precision, elegance, and depth, showing both immediate charm and outstanding ageing potential.
Appearance:
Brilliant pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles.
Nose:
Pure and elegant, offering aromas of lemon zest, green apple, white peach, and pear, layered with white flowers, chalk, and subtle notes of brioche, almond cream, and vanilla from long ageing on the lees.
Palate:
Precise and beautifully structured. The palate delivers citrus and orchard fruit wrapped in a silky, refined mousse. Vibrant acidity and a pronounced chalky minerality give the wine tension and finesse, while gentle autolytic notes add complexity without weight.
Finish:
Long, clean, and mineral-driven, with lingering notes of citrus, almond, and crushed stone.

Freshness and balance
Elegant ripeness

Comtes 2014 shows slightly more generosity than cooler years, while retaining the purity and finesse for which the cuvée is famous.
