"Tattinger's 1976 Comtes de Champagne is simply fabulous. Still creamy, textured and vivid, the 1976 possesses a breathtaking combination of signature citrus freshness, superb inner sweetness and the slightest hints of more advanced oxidative tones. The 1976 has matured beautifully and appears to be at its most profound peak. Tonight it is devastatingly beautiful. Wow!"
