The flagship tête de cuvée of the Taittinger Champagne house. Crafted exclusively from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from top-tier Grand Cru villages in the Côte des Blancs, it is produced only in exceptional vintage years.

Aroma: Typically presents white flowers (hawthorn, honeysuckle), citrus zest, and evolving autolytic notes of brioche, toast, and roasted almonds.

Palate: Known for a fine, persistent mousse and vibrant acidity. The finish is often long and mineral-driven, sometimes showing hints of ginger or licorice.

 

Taittinger Description

Composition: 100% Chardonnay from five Grand Cru villages: Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Oger, and Mesnil-sur-Oger.

Aging: The wine ages for up to 10 years on its lees in 13th-century chalk cellars (Crayères) beneath the Saint-Nicaise abbey in Reims.

Production Detail: Only first-press juice is used. Approximately 5% of the blend is aged in new oak barrels for three to four months to add subtle toasted notes without overpowering the fruit.

Food Pairing: Ideally paired with seafood, particularly shellfish like crab, lobster, or scallops, as well as fish entrées
