Description
Taittinger is one of Champagne’s great houses. It was founded in 1734 by Jacques Fourneaux whose vision grew into the large company it is today.
Taittinger Champagne is characterized by its high proportion of Chardonnay used in the blends. It is this unique style, which has been present since the outset; the style that the tasting panel always scrupulously seek to maintain. The house produces a few styles; both non vintage as well as exceptional vintage dated Champagnes.
In 1952, the Taittinger Champagne House created the Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs – its most exclusive and premium cuvée – in honour of the Comtes de Champagne, a descendant of Charlemagne, Thibault IV, for whom the residence was built in the 13th century in Reims.
TASTING NOTES
This vintage Blanc de Blancs is a staff favourite. Pronounced aromas of brioche, white flowers, nuts and vanilla. The palate is full and reminiscent of candied citrus and vanilla custard; fresh and creamy at the same time. A complex and harmonious Champagne that makes any occasion special!
