Taittinger Les Folies de la Marquetterie Champagne NV Gift Box 75cl

“Folies de la Marquetterie” is an expert blend of 45% Chardonnay and 55% Pinot Noir, sourced exclusively from the Taittinger vineyards. In French, a ‘folie’ can mean a very steep patch of land. It can also mean “madness” when used in another context, and indeed it could be considered “madness” to try and plant a vineyard on such a steep patch of land. The vineyard grew very quickly and the House now presents more than 35 different crus. Each plot is vinified separately, while some crus are aged in oak barrels. After blending this is then kept in the cellars of Taittinger for five years to ensures the wine’s perfect balance.
