Craftsmanship & Story
Taittinger Prestige Rosé is a testament to the House’s pursuit of elegance and colour. Around 15% of the blend is still red wine from the finest Pinot Noirs of Montagne de Reims, lending the cuvée its signature vibrancy and intensity. The high proportion of Chardonnay adds refinement and delicacy, hallmark traits of the Taittinger style. Each bottle is aged for at least three years in historic chalk cellars, allowing the wine to achieve a creamy texture and harmonious balance.
Special Features
The secret to Taittinger’s signature hue and structure lies in its meticulous blending method. The addition of still red wine from Grand Cru Pinot Noir vineyards ensures depth and character, while the Chardonnay component enhances purity and finesse. This rosé’s persistent mousse and radiant fruit make it a joyful expression of craftsmanship and celebration.
