Demi-Sec

This Champagne pairs excellently with a variety of desserts, such as chocolate cake, almond tart, and warm madeleines. It also complements blue cheeses and fine pâtés served on toasted brioche. Additionally, it pairs well with lightly spiced dishes, including Chinese or Mexican cuisine, offering a versatile range of pairing options.

The grapes for Taittinger Demi Sec are sourced from 40 different vineyards and multiple harvests. This blend consists of 40% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, and 25% Pinot Meunier. These vineyards are selected to ensure the highest quality grapes, contributing to the Champagne's rich and complex flavor profile​.

Taittinger Demi Sec can be enjoyed immediately but also has the potential to age gracefully for several years, developing further complexity and richness over time​.

The wine is aged for over five years in the cellar before being disgorged, which enhances its depth and character. The dosage of 33 grams per liter of sugar distinguishes it from Taittinger’s Brut Réserve, adding a specific sweetness that pairs well with desserts and other rich dishes.

Champagne Taittinger was established in 1931 by Pierre Taittinger on the foundations of Forest-Forneaux itself established in 1734 and the third-oldest wine producing house of Champagne. Taittinger is today proprietor of approximately 600 acres of vines among which are included parcels in the one hundred - percent rated villages of Cramant and Avize in the Cote des Blancs; and Bouzy Mailly Ambonnay and Verzenay in the Montagne de Reims. The Taittinger Estate is one of the three most extensive in the Champagne district and the firm's major holdings in Chardonnay vineyards are the physical expression of the Taittinger philosophy and style.
