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.
