Taittinger Les Folies de la Marquetterie
Production

Taittinger uses the méthode champenoise for their champagne production. Les Folies de la Marquetterie is composed of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay. The grapes are harvested from the Taittinger vineyard, Chateau de la Marquetterie in Pierry making it a single-estate wine. Only first press juice is used. Grapes from individual parcels are vinified separately, some in large old oak casks. The blend is reportedly from a single vintage, although not declared. It is aged for 5 years on the lees prior to disgorgement.
