Taittinger Comtes de Champagnes 1988, 2 bottles Reims one loose label with nicked edges "I am blown away by the 1988 Comtes de Champagne. Still incredibly fresh, the 1988 Comtes flows with intense mineral notes that frame a vibrant core of Chardonnay fruit. The color, aromatics and flavors are all remarkably youthful, while the crystalline purity of the finish suggests the 1988 will drink well for another two decades, if not longer. Readers who enjoy mature Champagne will need to be patient. Still, I see no reason to deny gratification; this is a rock star wine! Anticipated maturity: 2010-2030." A. Galloni for TWA, 97 pts. 09/10 2 bottles
