There is no specific drinking occasion for the brut reserve. Its elegance and lightness gives it a flexibility to be the champagne for the moment but it is always excellent as an aperitif.
Tasting Note:
Crisp, citrusy aromas with subtle toasty notes lead to an elegant, balanced palate with a lively, mousse texture and a crisp, flavourful finish.

Vinification Note:
The grapes for the Brut Reserve come from the prime vineyards throughout Champagne, with approximately 50% coming from the Taittinger estate.
Produced each year from the first pressings of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay this is the definitive cuvée of Champagne Taittinger. It is a carefully balanced blend of wines from up to 25 different 'crus'. It also includes a portion of reserve wine to ensure consistency from year to year. Prior to release the Brut reserve is aged for 3-4 years giving the wine depth whilst allowing parts to become fully integrated.
