Taittinger Nocturne Rosé is a “Sec” champagne composed of Chardonnay (30%) and Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier (70%) blended from around thirty different vineyards. 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. A 17.5g/l dosage of sugar cane combined with the slow cellar-ageing of four years create a round and smooth Rosé champagne that is perfect to enjoy late in the evening.
The colour is a bright, intense, flamboyant pink. Bubbles form a delicate cordon of fine foam. A full-bodied nose reveals delicious aromas of patisserie. On the palate the attack is clean and generous, while remaining very fresh. There are noticeable but very silky tannins. Taittinger Nocturne Rosé is a structured, voluptuous wine that presents an elegant, wellintegrated balance of sugar, acid, and tannins.
Taittinger Nocturne Rosé is a champagne for the beginning and the end of the evening. It can accompany a gourmet dessert (even a chocolate one) or a chic snack. It will carry revellers and champagne lovers to the end of the night.
