Taittinger Vintage 2004

Tasting notes

Fine initial aromas of white flowers on the nose give way to a fruity citrus fruits, sugared grapefruit and a hint of baked crusty bread. The palate continues the citrus fruit theme and is well rounded, full and richly made with an attractive effervescence and long finish.
