Taittinger Millésimé Vintage Champagne is a prestigious, beautifully balanced vintage Champagne produced by Champagne Taittinger, one of the few remaining independent, family-owned Great Champagne Houses. Crafted exclusively in exceptional harvest years, this vintage expression highlights the finesse, elegance, and Chardonnay-driven purity for which the house is world-renowned. Made entirely from First and Grand Cru vineyards, it offers a sophisticated, long-aged sparkling wine of exquisite depth and mineral precision.

Why You'll Love It

This Champagne stands out for its extraordinary harmony of opulent maturity and youthful vitality. Composed of an equal blend of Grand Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it undergoes over five years of lees aging in the historic cellars of Saint-Nicaise in Reims. This long maturation imparts a creamy, silky texture and tempting toasted brioche richness, while maintaining a precise, linear mineral backbone and vibrant citrus freshness that ensures remarkable longevity.

Vineyard & Production

The fruit is meticulously selected from top Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards across the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. Only the pure first pressings (cuvée) are utilized to guarantee optimal quality and refinement. Following primary fermentation, the wine undergoes traditional secondary fermentation in the bottle, aging on its fine yeast lees for more than five years in the cool, chalky cellars. After disgorgement, it receives a delicate dosage to perfect its balance before release.

Tasting Notes

Glinting a luminous pale gold with delicate emerald highlights and a ultrafine, persistent mousse in the glass, this Champagne opens with a refined, complex nose of white peach, candied lemon, candied ginger, and hawthorn blossoms, leading into notes of toasted brioche, fresh butter, and roasted nuts. On the palate, it is crisp, linear, and wonderfully structured, delivering a rich core of orchard fruit, citrus curd, and honeycomb. It finishes exceptionally long, focused, and elegant, marked by a signature chalky minerality.

Perfect Pairings

With its creamy texture, intense depth, and vibrant acidity, this vintage Champagne is a spectacular match for fine gastronomy. It pairs magnificently with pan-seared scallops, fresh oysters, lobster thermidor, and turbot in butter sauce. It is also an exceptional partner for roasted poultry, veal cutlets with morel mushrooms, delicate sushi or sashimi, and aged hard cheeses like Comté or Parmesan.
