Taittinger Prestige Rosé immediately stands out for its intense, shimmering hue whose secret lies in the fact that it is a blend, which is more complex and costly to produce. A quantity of still red wine (15%) produced from the best Pinot Noirs from Montagne de Reims and Les Riceys is added to the final blend, to give this cuvée its unmistakable colour and vibrant intensity on the palate. The high proportion of Chardonnay (30%) that completes the blend brings the elegance and delicacy that underpin Taittinger’s signature style.
Appearance: The intense, flamboyant colour is bright pink. Fine bubbles.
Nose: The full nose, wonderfully expressive, is fresh and young. It gives off aromas of red fruits (freshly crushed wild raspberry, cherry, blackcurrant).
Taste: This wine strikes a fine balance of a velvet texture and full body taste. The flavours are reminiscent of fresh, crisp red fruits. The palate can be summed up in four words: lively, fruity, fresh and elegant, as only a rosé blend can be.
About the Producer: Taittinger is one of the few Champagne houses still owned and managed by the family whose name appears on the label. During the First World War, Pierre Taittinger fell in love with the Champagne region while stationed at Château de la Marquetterie. In 1931 he returned and purchased this property and the story of the Reims-based house began. Ever since then, making beautiful wine has been a family affair. Today, the founder's great-grandchildren Vitalie and Clovis manage the estate, which at 288 hectares is the third largest domaine in Champagne - such size and diversity of crus help Taittinger control the quality from grape-pick to glass-pour.
