Taittinger Prestige Rosé NV 1.5L

Product Description:
Taittinger Prestige Rosé NV 1.5L is a non-vintage Brut Rosé Champagne presented in an impressive magnum format. The current assemblage comprises 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier, bringing together structure, finesse and lively fruit character. Between 11% and 14% still red wine is incorporated into the blend, contributing the cuvée’s vivid colour, depth and pronounced red-fruit expression. These red wines are produced from selected Pinot Noir vineyards across the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne and Côte des Bar. Contributing vineyard origins include Ambonnay, Rilly-la-Montagne, Verzenay, Hautvillers, Cumières, Les Riceys, Loches-sur-Ource and Bouzy. This carefully controlled assemblage reflects Taittinger’s emphasis on Chardonnay while preserving the body and fruit intensity expected from a distinguished rosé Champagne. 

Following the creation of the still rosé blend, the wine undergoes its second fermentation in bottle according to the traditional Champagne method. It is matured in Taittinger’s cellars for approximately three years, allowing the mousse to become fine and persistent while developing greater harmony and complexity. A dosage of approximately 7–9 grams per litre maintains a Brut profile and balances the wine’s generous fruit with refreshing acidity. In the glass, the cuvée displays an intense, brilliant pink colour and a fine stream of bubbles. The aromatic profile centres on freshly crushed wild raspberries, cherries and blackcurrants, accompanied by youthful freshness and subtle spice. Its palate is velvety and full-bodied yet energetic, combining crisp red-fruit flavours with elegance, brightness and a lingering sense of freshness. The 1.5-litre format provides a striking presentation of one of Taittinger’s most recognisable rosé expressions.
