Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The Chardonnays of the Côte des Blancs bring a chiselled vivacity, underpinned by a precise, chalky acidity.
Roundness
The dominant Pinot Noir and 12% still red wine lend a silky texture and luscious red fruit character.
Power
Fleshy and structured, this prestige rosé deploys a fruit core of remarkable intensity without ever feeling heavy.
Length
An exceptionally persistent finish, complex and impeccably balanced — the hallmark of twelve years' ageing in the cellar.

TASTING NOTES

Deep salmon robe with golden glints, fine and persistent bubbles. The nose opens on a generous bouquet of gingerbread, cherry, raspberry and rose, with a smoky, chalky undertone in the depths of the glass. On the palate, the texture is silky and precise — full-bodied without heaviness, an intense fruit core, beautiful chalky minerality and a long finish with nuances of toasted almond and gentle spice.

Terroirs

A blend of Pinot Noir from the Grands Crus of the Montagne de Reims and Chardonnay from the Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs, with 12% still red Pinot Noir wine lending its deep salmon colour and aromatic depth. Aged for more than twelve years in the Gallo-Roman cellars of Reims, hewn directly from the Champenois chalk.

Taittinger

About this house

Taittinger is one of the rare grandes maisons de Champagne to remain family-owned, founded in 1734 and taken over by Pierre Taittinger in 1945. Based in Reims, it owns more than 290 hectares of vines — the majority of which are Grands and Premiers Crus — an exceptional heritage in the region.

The Taittinger style is defined by a predominance of Chardonnay, the hallmark of finesse and freshness. The Comtes de Champagne has represented the pinnacle of the house since 1952: a prestige cuvée aged for many years in the Gallo-Roman cellars of Reims, the embodiment of understated luxury and Champenois precision.
