Taittinger is one of the really big brands among the top brands on the Champage. This is all the more astonishing since the company is relatively young. The Taittinger family only bought their first estate in Champagne in 1932 and a short time later Forest-Fourneaux, which was one of the oldest houses at the time, which made it possible to enter the market quickly. Champagne Taittinger is still owned by the family today.
The Taittinger Brut Réserve is composed of 35 different vineyards (crus) and several vintages in order to achieve a recognizable and constant taste. It consists of 40% the white Chardonnay variety and the two red Burgundy varieties Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Constantly producing this noble cuvée from these components is the great art of the cellar masters at Taittinger.
Taittinger's Champagne Brut Reserve is undoubtedly one of the best standard cuvées of all. Due to the long maturation period, it has a pleasantly nutty tone, complemented by notes reminiscent of brioche and peach. On the palate it delights with its balance and freshness, the elegant and long-lasting mousseux is beautiful. Try this premium champagne as an aperitif, with summer cooking or just to brighten up the moment.
