Brut Réserve

The Brut Réserve from Taittinger is available here as a jeroboam of three litres, the equivalent of four standard bottles. It is delivered in a wooden box. The champagne is a non-vintage Brut from 35 crus, made up of 40 per cent Chardonnay, 35 per cent Pinot Noir and 25 per cent Pinot Meunier. The high proportion of Chardonnay is unusual for this category and shapes the fine, light signature of the house. Three years of maturation in the cellar bring harmony.

You will find fine bubbles, a discreet mousse and an expressive fruity nose. On the palate the champagne is fresh, energetic and balanced, with fruit and honey in the aftertaste. The large format is ideal for celebrations, weddings or family gatherings with many guests. Chill the bottle in a tall bucket of iced water to 8 to 10 °C and pour into tulip glasses or white wine glasses. It goes well with seafood, fish and poultry.
