Tarlant La Vigne d'Antan Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Champagne 2002

The 2002 La Vigne d'Antan is utterly breathtaking from the very first taste. A vivid, crystalline wine, the 2002 emerges with the essence of crushed rocks, salt and bright, citrus-infused fruit. Hints of white pepper and flowers add elements of exoticism in a striking, pure Champagne loaded with class. Readers who can find the 2002 should not hesitate as it is magnificent. Drink: 2014-2022. Score - 96. (Antonio Galloni, vinousmedia.com, March 2014)
