Taittinger Brut La Française Champagne
Brut Champagne | 750 mL | Champagne, France | Non-Vintage
Process & Profile
Taittinger Brut La Française is the house’s signature non-vintage Champagne, known for a bright, elegant style driven by a higher proportion of Chardonnay than many classic Brut blends. It’s created from grapes sourced across numerous crus and multiple harvests, then aged on the lees for extended time to build fine texture and a refined, brioche-leaning depth.
In the glass, this Champagne stays crisp and vibrant—fresh orchard fruit and citrus up front—then opens into subtle honeyed notes, soft floral lift, and a clean, polished finish that makes it just as comfortable as an aperitif as it is at the table.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Peach, white flowers, vanilla pod, brioche
- Palate: Fresh fruit and honey with a bright citrus edge
- Finish: Clean, dry, and elegant with fine, persistent bubbles
What Makes It Special
- Higher-Chardonnay house style for added freshness and finesse
- Extended lees aging for a more refined texture and bready depth
- Consistent non-vintage profile that works for gifting, hosting, and celebrations
- Excellent with seafood, light appetizers, and white-meat dishes
- A classic “always right” Brut for customers who want quality without guessing
How to Enjoy
Serve well chilled and pour into flutes or tulip Champagne glasses. It shines as an aperitif, but it’s also a great partner for oysters, shrimp cocktail, sushi, fried appetizers, and soft cheeses. Let it sit a minute in the glass to bring out more brioche and honey notes.
