Generations of the Chartogne-Taillet family tender to the vines and ultimately turned their winemaking skills to the famous sparkling wine of the region.
Established in Merfy in 1683, Chartogne-Taillet’s vineyards are located North of the Montagne de Reims, 8 kilometres from Reims, on the southern tip of the Massif de Saint-Thierry. At the heart of the Chartogne-Taillet philosophy is the search for the individual identity of their soils, allowing the wines to reveal an authentic and representative character unique to the village.
After a ‘stage’ with Anselme Selosse, grower Alexandre Chartogne has been running his family's estate since 2006.
Chartogne-Taillet
Having a passion for champagne can be tiring if you don’t have a lot of options or simply don’t have any idea about which bottle to buy. For that reason alone, Emperor Champagne is able to help you. A quick look at our champagne collection will show you that we have a lengthy product line, including Chartogne-Taillet champagne.
This particular brand has been around for centuries and we can say with certainty that the champagne they produce is exquisite.
Our Chartogne-Taillet Collection
Our current collection of champagne by Chartogne-Taillet includes four different bottles, all of which will take you aback.
Cuvee Sainte Anne. Made with 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, this champagne contains just 4g of sugar per litre. During the production, there is no filtration and only natural yeasts are used in order to ferment the champagne. You can expect generous flavours yet a chalky texture, and perhaps sit down to a roast beef dinner before pouring a glass.
Heurtebise ’11. If you’re a fan of citrussy flavours in your champagne, then you’ll quickly acquaint with the Heurtebise ’11. The rich taste will quickly hit your palate while your tongue embraces the acidity – this champagne is an all-around crowd pleaser, perfect for a romantic night in or a casual gathering.
Les Orizeaux ’12. With the Les Orizeaux ’12, there’s one thing that makes it unique – it’s spicy as well as rich. This is made completely of Pinot Noir and offers a hint of vanilla to accompany the spiciness. Although only 2200 bottles have been produced of the Les Orizeaux ’12, at Empire Champagne we’re proud that we can offer our fair share of bottles.
Couarres Chateau ’12. The final bottle you can buy from our store is the Couarres Chateau ’12. This Chartogne-Taillet brut, while acidic, has a fruity and wildflower-based aroma which makes it perfect to pair with grilled meat and various cheeses.
