The Cuvée comes from the five Grand Cru villages of Avize, Cramant, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger and Chouilly on the Côte des Blancs. At Taittinger, it matures in the cellar for more than ten years before release. The 2012 shows ripe yellow fruit, pear, citrus and candied fruit, along with brioche, hazelnut and mineral chalk notes. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, creamy and textured, with lively acidity, fine bubbles and a long, spicy-mineral finish. The vintage is considered particularly approachable and harmonious at an early stage.
