Taittinger Brut Millésimé is produced from selected Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes grown in vineyards in several of the finest microclimates of the Champagne region. It is produced only in vintage years when the harvest yields fruit of excellence equal to Taittinger’s rigorous standards of quality.
Aged for five years on the lees, the wine acquires complexity and the fine, pinpoint bubbles characteristic of its sparkle.
The 2016 vintage is complex with aromas of pear, kumquat, verbena, gingerbread and white flowers, with a subtle minty note. On the palate there are fresh floral tones, such as honeysuckle, combined with notes of peach and citrus fruits. The finish is subtle, with long-lasting aromas of orange peel.
