WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Claude Taittinger was a great patron of the arts, and, as such, he began in the early 1980s to commission artwork for the bottles of some of his most exquisite wines. This highly collectible bottle was designed by Toshimitsu Imai, a Japanese artist known for combining the principles of abstract art with traditional Japanese sensibilities. According to the importer's web site: "The Taittinger Collection Series bottles are released only in great vintages, from a selection of the year's finest cuvées. The wines are made from Chardonnay mainly from the Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs, and Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne vineyards.
