Taittinger Brut Réserve
The Champagne Taittinger Brut Réserve from Reims is a French sparkling wine produced by the prestigious Taittinger winery from Reims.
This well-known Champagne is made from 40% Chardonnay, coming from different vineyards and selected from several vintages, and a 60% blend of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, coming from estate-owned vineyards.
After a meticulous vinification, Taittinger Brut Réserve was aged for 3-4 years in the bottle in order to fully round it.
| Appearance | The Champagne Taittinger Brut Réserve has a straw-yellow colour with some greenish tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | High aromatic intensity, as one might expected of a Champagne from Reims. Notes of baked white apples, white flowers and pastry, with a touch of aromatic herbs and toast. |
| Palate | This sparkling wine of the Maison Taittinger has a smooth and creamy entrance on the palate, with a well-rounded body, tiny bubbles and a silky texture. Long finish with remembrances of baked apples, toast, spices and smoke. |
