Description

Taittinger is one of the last great family-owned Champagne houses, and their Brut Réserve is a perfect example of their signature style - elegant, fresh, and always reliable. With a higher proportion of Chardonnay than most non-vintage Champagnes (40%), it leans towards brightness and finesse, making it a go-to for those who love a crisp, refined sparkler.

Aged for at least three years in the cellar, it’s made from over 35 vineyard parcels, ensuring balance and consistency in every bottle. This is the kind of Champagne that fits just about any occasion - whether it’s a celebration or just a midweek excuse to pop a cork.

Classic, effortless, and always a solid choice, Brut Réserve shows why Taittinger remains one of the most respected names in Champagne.

94 points – Top 100 Wines for 2023
"Taittinger has the largest family-owned vineyards in Champagne. This wine is 40% Chardonnay and 60% Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier—30% of it from reserves. It matured on yeast lees for at least three years. Balance is key, in the white flowers/peaches of the bouquet and the honey and vanilla of the palate."
- James Halliday (Wine Companion)

Taittinger Brut Réserve is a blend of Chardonnay (40%) and Pinot Noir & Pinot Meunier (60%), sourced from over 35 different vineyards and vintages. This high proportion of Chardonnay, unique among fine non-vintage Champagnes, combined with a minimum aging of three years in the cellars, allows the wine to reach its peak aromatic maturity. The result is a delicately balanced Champagne, renowned for its consistently excellent quality worldwide. Taittinger considers it an honour to produce a Brut Champagne every year without exception.

Appearance
A brilliant golden yellow body with fine bubbles and a discreet yet lingering foam.

Aroma
An open and expressive nose delivers aromas of fruit and brioche, alongside delicate notes of peach, white flowers (hawthorn, acacia), and vanilla pod.

Serving & Occasion

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
