Despite being a global brand producing million bottles annually and shipping to countries, the Taittinger family remain familiar and personable faces to the wine, culinary and art fraternities in the UK and beyond.

Thus it is a point of interest when the hugely charismatic Pierre-Emmanuel decides to hand over the reins.

According to the timeline he established from the moment he took back control of Taittinger Champagne in , Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger has made the decision to entrust the future of the family business to the next generation.

Speaking of his own time in the Champagne business Pierre-Emmanuel says:

Tanya Baxter is a leading Art Advisorybased between London & Hong Kong, working with modern and contemporary masters. Pierre emmanuel taittinger biography of christopher Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger told French newspaper Le Figaro the English were first to create champagne - but he claimed they did so "by mistake".

“I have dedicated more than 45 years of my life to Champagne and the House that bears our name and our history.  These last thirteen years have undoubtedly been the most effervescent, the most exhilarating of my career at Taittinger… I can hand over the reins, secure in a sense of accomplishment: a passionate team in whom I have complete confidence, very fine wines, a large and growing number of fans of our brand in more than countries around the world.

Taittinger holds a genuine potential for development and now more than ever reflects the authenticity and excellence of our culture and heritage.”

Vitalie Taittinger will become President of Taittinger Champagne as successor to her father whose term of office will end on 31st December Aged 40, she has been working for the House for 12 years and is currently the Director of Marketing and Communication.

She will undertake her new responsibilities with the support of Damien le Sueur (General Manager) and her brother Clovis Taittinger (who will be promoted to General Manager), the current Management Committee and all House employees.

Speaking of her father, Vitalie says: “We owe him the independence so fundamental to the identity of our House.

Thanks to him and to the work of all concerned, Taittinger has grown considerably with an ever-increasing attention to the quality of our wines, the preservation of our environment, the respect of our partners and our customers with always this touch of impertinence and audacity, just like the one that led us to go and plant vines at Domaine Evremond in Kent!”

Despite a more northerly latitude that previously prevented British growers from properly ripening grape varieties like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, climate change is seeing temperatures rise and growing periods lengthen. Although Britain’s wine production is tiny compared to Champagne, with suitable land costing mere fractions of the established premier and grand cru vineyards in France, England is easily seen as a good hedge against warming in more traditional locations.

Despite this, climate change has so far been good for the Champagne region with more consistency of quality and yields.

It is fair to say that this is a golden age of Champagne production. 

Cellars with UNESCO status

With many of Taittinger’s Champagnes being matured in their magnificent UNESCO status, 4th-century Roman cellars, the hallmark of these wines is the high percentage of Chardonnay used, which gives them elegance, delicacy and finesse.
