Taittinger remains one of the few Champagne Houses to remain owned and actively managed by the family named on the label. Its President, Pierre Emmanuel Taittinger, oversees in person the quality of the products bearing his name with his son Clovis and daughter Vitalie actively involved in the business. The hallmark of the Taittinger Champagnes is the high percentage of Chardonnay used in their winemaking which can be anything from 40% in the Brut Réserve Non Vintage to 100% in the prestigious Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs. This Chardonnay dominance provides for a style of elegance, delicacy and finesse which is recognised worldwide and has earned the House many accolades and awards over the years.
