Taittinger
The traditional family business is based in Reims and emerged from the Forest & Fourneaux winery in the early 1930s. It was founded by Pierre-Charles Taittinger, who was a young Parisian officer stationed at the Château de la Marquetterie in Champagne in 1915. 17 years later, he bought this château and joined forces with his brother-in-law Paul Evêque to take over Forest-Fourneaux two years later.
