Taittinger,

Winery Story

Taittinger is one of the best of France's newer Champagne houses, having made its debut in 1945 after Pierre Taittinger purchased the Fourne... (more...)aux Champagne house and gave it his own name, Taittinger. Pierre's two sons, Francois and Claude, have sustained the Champagne house's strong growth. Besides making outstanding bubbly, Taittinger is one of the top vineyard owners in Champagne, with more than 600 acres of the best sites under its ownership.

Tasting Note

A single vineyard, non-vintage brut wine from the vines overlooking the Château de la Marquetterie. The final blend of 55% Chardonnay an... (more...)d 45% Pinot Noir reflects the classic Taittinger house style. Les Folies is brilliant gold in color with gold highlights and pinpoint bubbles. The fragrance is intense with aromas of ripe peach and apricot underscored by notes of toasted brioche and vanilla. These carry onto a firmly structured, generous, expansive palate dominated by ripe golden peach flavors, ending in a long, slightly woodsy finish.Edited from the importer’s website
