Merchant's description

' The Taittinger family has producing world-class Champagne for nearly a century and its aim has always been the pursuit of excellence. The Brut Reserve is produced each year from 95% first pressings of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay and this is the definitive cuvee of Champagne Taittinger. It also includes a proportion of reserve wine int he belnd to ensure the blend is as excellent year in and year out. Prior to release the Brut Reserve is aged for 3-4 years giving the wine depth whilst allowing the component parts to become fully integrated. The grapes for the Brut Reserve come from prime vineyards throughout Champagne, with approximately 50% coming from the Taittinger Estate. It is a carefully balanced blend of wines from more than 35 'crus'. '
