Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 95
From 43% Pinot Noir and 57% Chardonnay, this bubbly is dry and has benefited from its bottle age, offering spicy accents atop a contrast of green apple and marzipan. High in acidity, it delivers a creamy texture that suggests richness without sweetness.
Wine Tasting Notes
Domaine Carneros by Taittinger Ultra Brut Champagne is a serious, expressive wine with a focused freshness and exceptionally long finish. A melange of fresh cut flowers, key lime, ginger, and honeydew melon on the nose leads to a beautifully balanced palate of green apple, blanched almond, yuzu, and a touch of mandarin. With a surprising mouthwatering complexity, its bright, crisp fruit, and dusty minerality ride on a serious structure, the persistent, palate-cleansing finish lingering on.
Food Pairing
A wine with such textural vibrance and intriguing tension pairs beautifully with rich, creamy sauces or foods with a natural voluptuousness such as raw oysters, smoked salmon or lobster. Incomparable with wine-savvy friends.
