The Millésimés are precious Champagnes with great personality; their charm lies in their inimitable uniqueness, as no two vintages are ever the same, and each cuvée tells a different and fascinating story. It is the ideal choice for those who do not settle for the standard taste expressed by classic non-vintage Champagnes and seek that special emotion that only Millésimés can provide. An exclusive and characterful Champagne.
The Brut Millésimé is the result of grapes from a single vintage, considered by the Maison Taittinger to be so exceptional that it is celebrated with a dedicated label. The Champagne region represents the northern boundary for vine cultivation. A latitude with a cold climate, where not every year does the grape reach perfect and full ripeness, and for this reason, the Millésimé is an exception in the landscape of Champagne production. It is made from Chardonnay sourced exclusively from classified vineyards.Grands Crus de la Côte des Blancs and Pinot Noir from the best Grands Crus of the Montagne de Reims and the initial part of the Vallée de la Marne. To the extraordinary quality of the vins clairs, a long aging period on the lees in the cellars of the Maison is added, which gives the Champagne a rich and multifaceted profile.
The Brut Millésimé Champagne from the Maison Taittinger is suitable for those who love mature, elegant, complex, and persistent Champagnes, particularly suited to be enjoyed at the table paired with important menus of fish or white meats. In the glass, it presents a bright light yellow, crossed by a cordon of finest, delicate, and persistent bubbles. On the nose, it expresses all its richness, with aromas of white fruit, Williams pear, yellow fruit, floral notes, and hints of dried fruit. The sip is deep, broad, and of great aromatic richness, marked by a lively freshness that gives lift to the palate. The finish is long and very persistent.
