Lot 415 Details
TAITTINGER CHAMPAGNE COMTES DE CHAMPAGNE BLANC DE BLANCS BRUT 2008

Champagne.

Offering up a deep and complex bouquet of citrus oil, crisp orchard fruit, warm brioche, crushed chalk, blanched almonds and smoke, it's full-bodied and incisive, with excellent concentration, racy acids and a long, searingly chalky finish. While this is already immensely impressive out of the gates, this 2008 is clearly built for the long haul, and three decades' longevity won't be a challenge. September 2020 Drink to 2048 WA 98

3 bts.    per lot $1,000 - $1,200

Realised: $996
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
