Taittinger Prestige Rose Brut N.V., 1.5L

Taittinger Prestige Rosé is a blend of 55% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay and 15% of still red wine produced from the best Pinot Noirs producers from Montagne de Reims and Les Riceys.
85% of the fruit is vinified as white wine and to this is added the other 15% that has been vinified as a red Pinot Noir to give this cuvée its unmistakable colour and vibrant intensity on the palate. The blend ages for a minimum of 3 years before release. Dosage 9g/l.

Tasting note:

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.
