The Comtes de Champagne series from Taittinger pays tribute to Thibaud IV, the Count of Champagne, who played a significant role in the history of the region, both as a noble and as an early advocate of the Chardonnay grape. This series is particularly special as it represents the pinnacle of Taittinger’s production, reserved exclusively for exceptional vintages. The Rose variant of this series is especially rare and sought after, adding an extra layer of exclusivity to each release. The 2008 bottling is crafted from 30% Chardonnay grapes selected from the finest Grands Crus vineyards on the Cote des Blancs, renowned for producing wines of finesse and high acidity. This is complemented by 70% Pinot Noir from the Grand Crus of the Montagne de Reims, imparting structure and depth. Notably, 12% of the Pinot Noir is vinified as red wine from the celebrated Pinot Noir of Bouzy, which adds a vibrant red fruit character and additional complexity to the palate. Presented in a stunning gift box- this is the perfect bottle to gift or open to toast to life’s significant moments.
