Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2011 Rosé from Taittinger, sourced from Champagne’s chalky terroirs. Red fruit and gentle spice after 12 years on the lees in chalk cellars. Silky, lively and mineral, with saline freshness. Serve at 10–12 °C as an aperitif or with seafood.
A Champagne house rooted in the Gallo-Roman chalk cellars of Reims, Taittinger carries on a family heritage where exacting Grand Cru standards meet timeless elegance.
- Terroir: A blend of Grand Cru plots—Côte des Blancs for the Chardonnay and Montagne de Reims for the Pinot Noir—where chalky soils shape the wines’ minerality and tension.
- Winemaking: Extended aging on the lees in bottle in the historic Saint-Nicaise cellars brings freshness and complexity into harmony.
Tasting notes for Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Rosé 2011
In the glass – A rose-gold hue with copper highlights and a silky sheen, each fine bubble tracing a lingering trail along the sides of the glass.
On the nose – First come aromas of black cherry and fresh raspberry, followed by deeper notes of gingerbread and licorice, lifted by a saline hint of chalk and a touch of candied citrus.
On the palate – A precise, fruit-forward opening brings together the terroir’s mineral tension and a silky tannic structure, leading to a long, saline finish driven by vibrant freshness.
Serve at 10–12°C in a Champagne flute to preserve the finesse of its bubbles.
