“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 in fact 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.
The intense and brilliant body is bright pink in colour.The
bubbles are fine, and the mousse persistent.The full nose,
wonderfully expressive, is both fresh and young. It gives
off aromas of red fruits (freshly crushed wild raspberry,
cherry, blackcurrant). On the palate, 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.”
