Taittinger Brut Reserve NV Gift Box
Champagne
Description
Founded in Reims and still family-owned today, Taittinger is recognised for producing Champagnes that prioritise finesse and freshness over weight and richness. The house has long championed Chardonnay in its blends, giving its wines a lifted, refined character that sets them apart within Champagne.
Taittinger Brut Réserve NV is sourced from more than 35 crus across the Champagne region, combining fruit from multiple harvests to maintain consistency and balance year after year. Extended lees ageing of at least three years in the chalk cellars beneath Reims adds texture and complexity, while the high proportion of Chardonnay contributes brightness, precision and elegance. Presented in a gift box, this is a polished, versatile Champagne suited to celebrations, gifting and entertaining alike.
Colour:
Bright golden straw with a fine, persistent mousse and delicate streams of bubbles.
Nose:
Fresh peach, lemon zest and green apple lead the aromatics, followed by brioche, white flowers and a subtle hint of vanilla pod.
Palate:
Light on its feet yet layered, the palate combines citrus and orchard fruit with notes of honey, biscuit and toasted brioche. The Chardonnay brings freshness and elegance, while Pinot Noir and Meunier add gentle roundness and texture. The mousse is fine and creamy without feeling heavy.
Finish:
Clean, lingering and refreshing, with notes of citrus, pastry and soft minerality carrying through the finish.

Taittinger Brut Reserve NV Gift Box
- Food Pairing : Taittinger Brut Réserve NV works beautifully as an aperitif but also has enough texture to pair comfortably with food. Fresh oysters, smoked salmon blinis or tempura prawns highlight the wine’s citrus-driven freshness and fine mousse, while creamy mushroom tart or roast chicken bring out its brioche and pastry notes. The balance of freshness and gentle richness also makes it a natural match for sushi, crayfish or soft cheeses served as part of a celebratory spread.
