Taittinger has the largest family owned vineyards in Champagne. This wine is 40% Chardonnay and 60%, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – 30% of it from reserves. Mature on yeast lees for at least three years. Balance is key, in the white flowers/peaches of the bouquet and the honey and vanilla of the palate.
