The Peninsula Manila to Hold a Taittinger Champagne Dinner

Old Manila loves Champagne dinners and Chef de Cuisine Allan Briones is delighted to announce that the first one this year will be an amazing Taittinger Champagne Dinner on February 6, 2020.

“With its rich history of family tradition and a legacy of excellence, Old Manila is honored to present five exemplary Champagnes from the renowned French Champagne House of Taittinger,” says Old Manila Chef de Cuisine Allan Briones.

“My menu has been designed with the distinct qualities of these exemplary Champagnes in mind. The Lobster, Scallops, and Avocado course, for example is paired with the iconic Comte de Champagne.   For those unfamiliar with Comte de Champagne, it is Taittinger’s flagship Champagne in the same way that Moët & Chandon has Dom Perignon and Louis Roederer has Cristal.”

The Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs is made only from the finest Chardonnay grapes grown in the top grands crus vineyards of the prestigious Côte des Blancs. These include Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, and Mesnil-sur-Oger. Made only in the best vintages and in limited quantities this wine is handcrafted from the first pressings and left to mature in Taittinger’s 4th century cellars for almost 10 years to create a wine of ultimate elegance, delicacy, and finesse whilst displaying great complexity.  

The Old Manila Taittinger Champagne Dinner is on February 6, 2020. Price per guest is P6,000, inclusive of all taxes.
