The Taittingers are one of France’s great wine families and owners of one of the great Champagne houses with a history dating back to 1734. So you could imagine the nationwide horror when in 2005 Taittinger was bought by an American firm – sacre bleu!
Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger, grandson of the original founder, was having none of that. He rustled up the cash (and a fair bit of it at around 660 million Euros – he needed the help of French bank Crédit Agricole!), bought back his family’s business and sent the Yanks packing.
With a long and proud history you can understand Champagne is in their blood. This is their Taittinger Prestige Rose Champagne label, the house Rosé Champagne, and in their own words has “a velvety, full texture, carried by aromas of fresh red fruit.
This Taittinger Prestige Rose Champagne is 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier and it includes 11-14% of the finest Pinot Noir grapes of the Montagne de Reims and Riceys areas.
A full salmon-pink colour this is a Champagne that’s all about the Pinot – The Real Review’s Huon Hooke scored it 95/100 and loved the “very pinoty aromas of poached fruit, quince paste and raspberry shortcake.”
