Notes - Taittinger only makes a vintage champagne when the harvest has been of such outstanding quality that it deserves to be fully vinified. The wine is then only marketed after several years of ageing in the cellars, allowing the aromas to mature slowly and the length and complexity of the wine to develop.Taittinger Brut Millésimé is composed of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir. The Chardonnay grapes are mostly from the grands crus of the Côte des Blancs and the Pinot Noir grapes are from the crus of the Montagne de Reims and the Vallée de la Marne. These origins combined with the exclusive use of first pressing juices are necessary elements for great aromatic finesse and a long storage time. The Brut Vintage has a delicate, fruity nose with subtle aromas of peach and sweetened grapefruit, with the scent of white flowers and tea leaves. On the palate, this wine is lively and smooth, with dominant fruit flavours of citrus and quince.
