Product Information:

This Champagne is a blend of some 30 Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards, respectively 40% and 60% of the total, from several harvests of perfectly ripened grapes. Clean, delicate and complete; a light style with bright fruit flavors and floral, spicy accents. It has great balance and a subtle, fine effervescence.

"Crisp aromas of green apple, wheat and minerals. Fresh, creamy flavors of apple and toasted bread with hints of red fruit. Classy finish." Wine News



Wine Spectator Review:
A round, generous style, offering peach, candied lemon and honey flavors on a creamy texture. Its mousse is refined, and this turns drier on the long finish. Drink now through 2011

Parker Review:
The NV Brut La Francaise is a pretty, taut Champagne with lovely definition in its aromas and flavors. The wine offers good length and a crisp, refreshing finish. Taittinger-s entry-level NV Brut La Francaise is a reliable offering in its price point. Disgorged end of June 2008, (not indicated on label). Anticipated maturity 2009-2014.

Tanzer Review:
Fruity aromas of apple, orange blossom, toast and nuts. Fat, ripe and suave a medium-bodied, middle-of-the-road wine with a moderate dosage and a nice light touch. Finishes clean and persistent. An excellent non-vintage brut.

Other Notes:
Pale straw in color with a fine bead. As always, this is an elegant, distinctive and impeccably crisp Champagne. It is the epitome of stylish tightly focused, it gently unwraps itself into a graceful, immaculately clean finish thats lightly toasty and hints at coconut and vanilla wafer. Wine Enthusiast
