It is the finest way into the Taittinger style, made of finesse, freshness and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blend brings together 40% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 25% Meunier, drawn from around forty crus and several harvests, including 30% reserve wines that keep the style consistent from one year to the next. The wine ages three to four years in the cellar before disgorgement and receives a dosage of 9 g\/L. The result is a luminous champagne, both tender and lively, that suits the aperitif as well as the meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey facts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Champagne, Reims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne Taittinger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrapes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay 40%, Pinot Noir 35%, Meunier 25%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDosage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brut, 9 g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgeing:\u003c\/strong\u003e three to four years in the cellar, 30% reserve wines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright golden straw yellow, fine bubbles, abundant and persistent mousse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e White flowers such as acacia and hawthorn, honeyed notes, then yellow peach, mirabelle plum, apricot and fresh vanilla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lively, melting attack, flavours of brioche, honey and vanilla, long finish on lightly toasted almond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it at around 8 to 10 °C, in a white wine glass or a tulip flute rather than a coupe, so its aromas can show.

Reserve wines, kept by the house, make it possible to find the same style every year. The term brut refers to a low dosage, below 12 g\/L, which keeps fruit and freshness in the foreground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is Maison Taittinger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe origins of the house go back to 1734 and the merchant house Forest-Fourneaux, taken over in 1932 by Pierre Taittinger, who gave it his name. Still family-owned and independent, it is led today by Vitalie Taittinger. Its style rests on the generous place given to Chardonnay, a guarantee of finesse and freshness, and its wines age in the Gallo-Roman chalk cellars of Saint-Nicaise, in Reims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is the bottle shipped?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelivery is free in France for orders from €300.
