Taittinger, 2012
RRP £58.75
At just six years old, this is still extremely youthful and a touch reductive. The nose has great purity, reminiscent of white and yellow fruits, with beautiful patisserie-like scents supporting. The soft, creamy palate is sewn up with a fine line of acidity on the long finish. (Essi Avellan MW)
