Nocturne sleeve

Taittinger Nocturne is a cuvée of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier from around thirty vineyards and several vintages. It lies in the cellar for four years before disgorgement. Dosed at 17.5 g/l of cane sugar, it is round and supple. This edition comes in a new sleeve, which makes it particularly eye-catching.

Nocturne is meant as a champagne for late in the evening rather than as an aperitif. It goes well with desserts and with foie gras on gingerbread, where sweetness and spice sit nicely together. Serve it at 6 to 8 °C in a white wine glass or a champagne glass with a little more belly. That way the richness and the soft texture come across well, and the bottle looks good on the table too.
