Product Description

Details

The refined Champagne Taittinger Brut Millesimé Champagne is produced only in exceptional years. That is why this is a vintage Champagne.

Crafted by the legendary Maison Taittinger, this Champagne is made from an equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

The Chardonnay grapes come from Grand Cru vineyards located in Côte des Blancs.

The Pinot Noir comes from Premier Cru vines located in the mountains of Reims and the Marne valley.

After a meticulous vinification, the Champagne Taittinger Brut Millésimé 2016 was aged for a minimum of 5 years in the cellar.

Additional Information

Additional Information

Appearance	The Champagne Taittinger Millésimé Brut has a straw yellow colour with some golden tinges.
Nose	Delicate, smooth and refined, this blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir suggests aromas of peach, shaddock and apple, alongside remembrances of red berries, tea leaves, menthol, pastry and dry fruit.
Palate	Lively and palate-caressing, this Vintage Champagne from the legendary Maison Taittinger is both sophisticated and exceedingly drinkable. Quince jelly, English custard, aromatic herbs, citrus, balsam, kirsch and garrigue. Long, linear, sexy finish.
Our personal opinion	Versatile, elegant and fresh, the Champagne Taittinger Brut Millésimé 2016 is a very good Champagne with some ageing potential.
