Description
In a nutshell:
A mellow and ripe Champagne with a fuller, richer character.
The lowdown:
This is less dry than Brut Champagnes, having twice the dosage, and is a blend of 40% Chardonnay and 60% Pinots Noir and Meunier. The result is a rounded and mellow and very subtly sweeter than Taittinger's Brut Réserve. There's an extra creamy and ripe feel to the fruit flavours while wtill staying perfectly fresh in the mouth. It maybe a somewhat overlooked style these days but with the winemaking skill on show here it's a top quality Champagne.
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 less austere Champagne it's perfect with richer things like foie gras, or creamy desserts where it really comes into its own.
Suitable for Vegans
