Taittinger Cuvée Prestige Brut is a blend of around fifty different vineyards, consisting of Chardonnays (40%) and Pinots (60%) from various vintages matured to perfection. Such a high proportion of Chardonnay is seldom found in fine non-vintage champagne. Taittinger considers it an honour to produce a Brut champagne every year without exception.
Taittinger Cuvée Prestige Brut is unique for its crisp bouquet and balanced aromas. Its finesse, vigour and exuberance on the palate make it the perfect champagne for any occasion.

“Creating a great non-vintage champagne is more than just an occupation for myself and my family – it is an honour.”
Pierre Emmanuel Taittinger.
TO THE EYE
The brilliant body is golden yellow in colour. The bubbles are fine, while the foam is discreet yet lingering.
TO THE NOSE
The nose, very open and expressive, delivers aromas of fruit and brioche. It also gives off the fragrance of peach, white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) and vanilla pod.
ON THE PALATE
The entry onto the palate is lively, fresh and in total harmony. This is a delicate wine with flavours of fresh fruit and honey.
Taittinger Cuvée Prestige Brut is aged in the cellar for three to four years to reach perfect maturity and develop excellent aromatic potential.
FOOD PAIRING
Taittinger Cuvée Prestige Brut is the champagne for any occasion. A symbol of festivity, this wine is the ideal partner of celebration for the happiest milestones in a lifetime.
A legacy since 1734, Champagne Taittinger is the largest eponymous family owned Champagne House and one of the top, independent champagne brands in the world.
This family of growers cultivates the second largest vineyard in the Champagne region. The composition of the house’s cuvées is a result of an intuitive and complex process, one which the Taittinger family know how to create and sustain; a Champagne which is completely unique.
