Description
In a nutshell:
A quite full and creamy style of Brut NV from one of the oldest Champagne houses.
The lowdown:
This, the Brut Réserve is Taittinger's flagship Champagne. Being one of the largest land owners in Champagne about half of the grapes come from their own vineyards - most houses depend on a higher proportion of bought-in fruit - and their blend comprises about 40% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir with the remainder being Pinot Meunier. It's aged for a full three years on its lees which helps develops it's characteristic toastiness. The light and delicate nose has peachy and brioche hints while the on the palate there's a good depth and citrus elegance with a long fresh finish.
The Producer:
Taittinger, with roots going back to 1734, effortlessly blends tradition and innovation. Based in Reims, they've been family-owned for generations, preserving a legacy of elegance. Their vineyards span 288 hectares, predominantly Chardonnay, lending a distinctive lightness to their bubbles. Taittingers Brut Réserve is a staple - crisp, fresh, and subtly complex. The House champions sustainability, ensuring a green future for Champagne.
When to drink:
A dependable and famous name Champagne that won't disappoint, a natural aperitif and also good with oysters, or grilled and roasted white meats.
Suitable for Vegans
