Taittinger
Comtes de Champagne Brut Rosé
Montagne de Reims, Champagne, France
This is a beauty. It strikes an impeccable balance between the pure chardonnay fruit and the red bursts of fruit from the still pinot noir addition. Has developed a pleasant toasty complexity in the finish, a joy to drink.

Just a few pics of the wines from last night’s monthly 4th Friday. Too many bottles to try!
There is A LOT to like here right now. Delicate aromatics of rose petal, strawberry cream and cherry tart but it turns more powerful and rich on the palate. Strawberry shortbread, red fruit skin, chalky limestone and a finish that turns slightly herbal. The structure here shows that this will be open for business for quite a while.

Reduced,masked all the good stuff. Not very pleasurable.

Didn't take notes as enjoying with friends & the experience of these lovely bubbles vs taking notes 😎
Overall I found it a lovely caramel red apple persistent fine mousse oozing brioche & red fruits with a creamy soft red biscuity fruit linger with perfectly balanced acidity 🥂

Had the 2002 as well, I think, from a magnum. Both were delicious before dinner.
