I know my un-wineds are typically wine reviews, but a bit of champagne never hurt anyone, right?
My dad likes to call himself a "champagne connoisseur." Connoisseur is probably a strong word, but the guy enjoys champagne. Generally when we come to visit, he'll uncork one nice bottle. For this trip, the bottle was:
Taittinger Champagne Brut
France
This bottle retails for about $40, which is outside of my general weekly bottle price range. But, for a special occasion, I would definitely splurge. The champagne was fabulous! Refreshing and crisp, with a clean finish. It was easy to drink quickly, so I had to pace myself. Though I admittedly don't have the most discerning champagne palate, this was just yummy. Perfect for a summer evening on the porch overlooking the ocean. Just perfect.
Overall rating - 9/10
