KATSUDA　　★★★★★(2008/1/1) 遅ればせながら、あけましておめでとうございます。Wine Cellar KATSUDA の 勝田滋樹です。 本年もどうぞよろしくお願い申し上げます。 私は、お正月、1/1の昼、テタンジェ・コント・ド・シャンパーニュ ブラン・ド・ブラン1998で新年を迎えました。 テタンジェは、まだ国内ではマイナーな存在ですが、パーカー氏も五つ星（OUTSTANDING 傑出）と評価され、ブルータス誌のシャンパン特集でも日本のソムリエの方に高評価（80本の中でTOP3に）。日本航空の国内線のファーストクラスが新設された際、真っ先に、ファーストクラスのシャンパンに、1998年テタンジェ・コント・ド・シャンパーニュ ブラン・ド・ブランが選ばれました。また1995年（パーカー96点）は、数年前よりJALの国際線ファーストクラスのシャンパンでサービスされるなど、テタンジェ・コントは、実績、実力のあるどちらかと言いますとシャンパン通（ブラン・ド・ブラン好きの）向けのシャンパンです。 実は、テタンジェ・コント・ド・シャンパーニュ ブラン・ド・ブランは、残念なことに3...

2000 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne96pt.Drink2012-2030The 2000 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne is a huge wine bursting with ripe varietal fruit, smoke, ash, crushed rocks and slate.

2002 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne98pt.Drink2012-2042Taittinger’s 2002 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne is off the charts. I have tasted the 2002 now many times, and it has never been less than thrilling. A vivid kaleidoscope of pure Chardonnay aromas and flavors opens up in the glass. The 2002 is at once incredibly rich yet also totally weightless and impeccable in its balance. All the classic Comtes notes are there, but with a level of detail and nuance I don’t think I have ever seen ...
