- A symbol of festivity, a champagne for all occasions and celebrations

- Aged for 4 years to create a fine bubble and complex aroma

- Fresh, clean yet rich and refined

Such a high proportion of Chardonnay is seldom found in fine non-vintage champagne. This was a gold medal winner in the 2017 Champagne Masters and got 92/100 from Wine Spectator.

Taittinger considers it an honour to produce a Brut champagne every year without exception. Taittinger Brut Réserve is unique for its crisp bouquet and balanced aromas. Its finesse, vigour and exuberance on the palate make it the perfect champagne for any occasion.

The brilliant body is golden yellow in colour. The bubbles are fine, while the foam is discreet yet lingering. The nose, very open and expressive, delivers aromas of fruit and brioche. It also gives off the fragrance of peach, white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) and vanilla pod. The entry onto the palate is lively, fresh and in total harmony. This is a delicate wine with flavours of fresh fruit and honey.

Reviews

A blend led by long-ageing chardonnay, Taittinger's non-vintage spends a minimum of three years in its cellar prior to release. It retains accurate precision of citrus and stone fruits, with age contributing complex nuances of nutmeg and mixed spice.

….Lovely pale colour. Lightly fruity (peach/apple/citrus) with some floral overtones. A clean fresh smelling wine. On the palate again quite light and delicate with minerally citrus and apple flavours. Slight breadiness. Good fine bead and an attractive foaminess in the mouth with a little sweetness on the finish. Not especially complex but lovely elegant fizz and a good ‘standing up’ style.
