Product Information
A Classic for a reason, expect notes of brioche to balance out delicate notes, such as peach, honey and white flowers, such as Hawthorne. Delicious on its own for any celebration, it also pairs well with smoked salmon, shellfish or pizza.
Brand Marketing
Established atop Gallo-Roman chalk quarries listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and on a vineyard of 288 hectares, the family-run Maison Taittinger is driven by the pursuit of excellence. Finesse, elegance and precision define the style of its wines.
Brut Réserve reveals a wine characterised by the vibrancy of its predominantly Chardonnay blend. While Pinot Noir guarantees structure, its lower proportion of Meunier lends delicate sweetness to this timeless blend. The grapes are selected from more than 35 different terroirs and several harvests.

History
Champagne Taittinger's origins date back to 1734. 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.
