Tasting notes
The estate's 1973 Comtes de Champagne is noticeably richer and weightier than the 1971, even if some of the aromas and flavors are a touch more advanced. Round and enveloping on the palate, the 1973 flows with superb depth and textural finesse. Hints of caramel and toffee add the final notes of complexity. This is a breathtaking Champagne.
