"The 2012 Comtes de Champagne Rose is magnificent... I would be thrilled to own this." -Antonio Galloni
The 2012 Comtes de Champagne Rosé stands as one of the monuments of the vintage. I'm happy to offer this stunning Champagne at the lowest price around.

In any vintage, Comtes de Champagne is one of the most compelling rosé champagnes. I can't tell you how many times I've been blown away by bottles of Comtes de Champagne Rosé.
The hallmark here is aristocratic breeding with super-fine layers of fruit. It is authoritative in its presence for sure, but it carries its stature with stunning sophistication. It is amazing how Comtes de Champagne Rosé delivers such a seductive texture while being so ethereal and perfumed.
Taittinger's 2012 is defined by its energy. It has a shimmering clarity. There's a beautiful assortment of red fruits, spice, floral, and mineral notes. The palate is beautifully silky and nimble with an impressive amount of sophistication. The total package is lovely.
As Comtes de Champagne Rosé ages, magic happens. Mature examples combine a Burgundy-like earthiness and complexity with a shocking freshness. This is a not to be missed vintage of the wine.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media: "The 2012 Comtes de Champagne Rose is magnificent. Rich and explosive in the glass, the 2012 Comtes Rose dazzles from start to finish. I like it even more today than I liked it last year! A rush of red cherry fruit, kirsch, blood orange, cinnamon and rose petal soars out of the glass. Vertical structure and tons of energy are the signatures. I would be thrilled to own this."
