    Taittinger Brut Reserve - FIFA World Cup 2014

     
    As the official Champagne of the 2014 FIFA World Cup, Champagne Taittinger has released a special limited edition World Cup souvenir bottle of their Brut Réserve NV Champagne. 
     
    Designed to celebrate Taittinger's association with the forthcoming tournament, the bottle and box have been designed using groundbreaking 3D print technology.

    The souvenir bottle is presented in an elegant white and gold gift box featuring hologram footballs. The bottle includes a gold label with the football theme continued and the World Cup trophy featuring on the neck label.

    This is the first time in the history of the tournament that a Champagne House has been chosen by FIFA as the official Champagne to be served to guests in FIFA's VIP and VVIP areas.

    Champagne Taittinger is one of the top 3 biggest Champagne brands in Brazil. 

    The 2014 FIFA World Cup ran from Thursday, 12 June 2014 - Sunday, 13 July 2014.

    Tasting Notes:
    A brilliant golden straw-yellow colour. The bubbles are fine. The mousse is both discreet and persistent. On the nose, very expressive and open. It is both fruity and bready, exuding aromas of peach, white flowers and vanilla pod.

    On the palate, this lively fresh wine is at once in harmony. This is a delicate wine with flavours of fresh fruit and honey.

    Aged for three to four years in the cellars where it achieves perfect maturity and well-developed aromatic maturity.

    Grape Variety:
    40% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 30% Pinot Meunier

    Dosage - 11.5g/l

    Ageing - 3 to 4 years 

    Serving:
    A perfect accompaniment to white meat (lamb with chanterelles), crayfish or mushroom quiche. 

    Background Information:
    The grapes for the Brut Reserve come from prime vineyards throughout Champagne, with approximately 50% coming from the Taittinger Estate.

    Produced each year from the first pressings of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay this is the definitive cuvée of Champagne Taittinger. It is a carefully balanced blend of wines from up to twenty-five different 'crus'. It also includes a proportion of reserve wine to ensure consistency from year to year. 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. Such a high proportion of Chardonnay is seldom found among the great Champagnes.
