Champagne Taittinger Nocturne Rose NV

Champagne, FranceA 30/70 mix of chardonnay and pinot noir/meunier fruit that fills the glass with a light raspberry colour and a fresh brioche, cherry/strawberry aroma with a hint of citrus. The attack is Taittinger elegant and creamy an off dry mixed of baked apple, honey, spicy, strawberry, citrus flavours. You don't really feel the 17.5 percent residual sugar given the acidity and fruit balance. Try this with foie gras or spicy appetizers or chill well and serve post dinner with alight fruit dessert. A blend of more than 30 sites and several vintages completes its complex styling.Tasted: 08 June 2014Tasted by: Prices:
