The Wine Front – Toasty with plenty of bready complexity and powerful lemon and mixed nut flavour. Intense acidity and focus–strong and firm—then a long briny/mineral finish. Muscular but graceful. So much fizz packed into one bottle, though it’s still easy to drink. Terrific. 5 December 2012
James Suckling – A tighter and firmer, dry Champagne with a compact, minerally palate. Lovely, fine and creamy bead. Soft and round mid-palate with lemon, lemon-curd and green-apple flavors. Fresh finish. Drink now. 2 September 2019

Champagne Taittinger Prélude NV
96 POINTS - The Real Review, Bob Campbell
"An equal blend of chardonnay and pinot noir from Taittinger's top Grand Cru vineyards, with five years maturation on the yeast lees in bottle. Absolutely top Champagne with Taittinger's signature etherealness and purity. Fresh baguette crust with a hint of oyster shell-mineral and subtle citrus flavours." 18 December 2019"
The brilliant body is pale yellow with silver highlights, a sign of the high proportion of exceptional Chardonnays. The bubbles are fi ne and form a persistent and delicately creamy ring of foam. The wine is subtle and fresh on the nose. The initial mineral aromas quickly give way to green and then fl oral notes with the fragrance of elderfl owers and spicy cinnamon undertones. The entry onto the palate is clean and lively, dominated by very exceedingly fresh citrus notes. These segue into much fuller, rounder and silkier fl avours where white peaches in syrup predominate. The finish is rich, lingering and bursting with fl avour. Prélude Grands Crus is a joyous blend of fi nesse and complexity. Its balance of freshness and aromatic expression is outstanding.
