Taittinger Kellermeister Alexandre Ponnavoy beschreibt seinen Comtes 2011 als überaus sinnlich mit köstlichen Aromen von Lebkuchen, Lakritz und Baiser, gestützt vom leicht jodigen Charakter der Côte des Blancs Chardonnays. Deutlich mineralisch, mit Aromen von Weinbergspfirsich, Mandarinenschale und süßen Gewürzen, wie Anis und Koriander. 

James Suckling 
A firm, fresh Comtes with a tight and composed palate. It’s full-bodied with a racy mid-palate. Long and persistent. Very structured with phenolics and acidity. Minerally. Floral, too. Refreshing and energetic. September 2021 release. Drink or hold. 

Wine Advocate 
After the tightly coiled, hyper-concentrated 2008, Taittinger's 2011 Brut Blanc de Blancs Comtes de Champagne represents a more immediate, charming rendition of this cuvée. Bursting from the glass with aromas of orchard and stone fruit mingled with notions of pastry cream, blanched almonds and mandarin, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and fleshy, with a soft and enveloping profile, lively acids and a pretty pinpoint mousse. Readers might think of the 2011 as a somewhat less reductive and less intense stylistic sibling of the 2006, and as it takes on more toasty complexity with bottle age, it will make for immensely seductive drinking.
