Tasting Notes
Taittinger's hallmark is the dominance of Chardonnay in its wines, and this Brut Reserve NV has the lead role in the family's cast of Champagnes.
Elegantly done, this has wonderful light, fresh citrus fruit with a subtle hint of toastiness.
A real star, and the ideal aperitif.
Storage Instructions
This wine is ideal for drinking now but can be kept for up to 3 years
Expert Opinion
In the press...
Jamie Goode - S Magazine, Sunday Express 02/06/2013"Taittinger is an excellent example of the basic non-vintage style of Champagne, with 20% of older 'reserve' wines blended in for balance. It's taut and crisp with citrus freshness."
Background
History
Champagne Taittinger's origins date back to 1734 with the founding of the original House by Jacques Fourneaux. The Taittinger link was established in 1931 when Pierre Taittinger acquired the House. He was stationed at the Château de la Marquetterie when serving in the 1st World War and fell in love with the property and its vineyards and eventually purchased the company. Today, the Reims based House is one of the few key Champagne houses to remain owned and actively managed by the family named on the label.
