| Taittinger Collection 1981 Vintage Champagne Ref: 1421 All our vintage wines show the vintage clearly on the bottle. The Arman Bottle for the 1981 Vintage.
Arman is known for his "accumulation" sculptures, which are created not from conventional materials but from a fusion of many already existing, similar, ordinary objects or accumulated parts of one object. A strong Cubist background informed his "Colères" exhibition, a violent dismembering of artifacts and musical instruments, notably violins, which randomly echo their fragmented forms.
The 1981 vintage was of exceptional quality, but a smaller than average harvest restricted production of this Collection bottling. The 1981 Brut Vintage is characterized by a delicacy of structure, elegance on the palate and a subtle complexity in the classic Taittinger style.
