WINE MAKING PROCESS
Taittinger Brut Réserve is produced using the traditional method of Champagne production. The grapes undergo primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Following blending, the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, followed by a minimum of three years of aging on its lees in the producer's cellars. Reserve wines, up to 20% of the blend, are used to ensure the consistency of the house style across vintages.
