Taittinger Brut Reserve - 75cl/12%

Producer History:
Founded in 1932, Taittinger remains one of the few major Champagne houses still family-owned and managed. With around 288 hectares of vineyards across premier Champagne crus, the house is renowned for its elegant, Chardonnay-driven style. Brut Réserve is the signature entry-level cuvée that best embodies the Taittinger identity of balance, finesse and consistency.

Wine Introduction:
Taittinger Brut Réserve is the house’s flagship non-vintage Champagne, blended from 40% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 25% Pinot Meunier drawn from more than 40 crus, with around 30% reserve wines. The unusually high proportion of Chardonnay defines the refined, mineral-driven house style. Aged for a minimum of three to four years in the cellars with a dosage of approximately 9 g/L, it serves as the ideal introduction to the Taittinger range.

Tasting Notes:
Nosing: White flowers (acacia, hawthorn), white peach, vanilla and honeyed notes with brioche and mineral undertones.
Palate: Lively yet elegant attack with balanced fruit, honey and vanilla; fluid and finely textured.
Finish: Long and supple with a touch of lightly roasted almond and refined minerality.
