"Sublime"
-2013 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Rosé

Posted by Ian McFadden

"The 2013 is so expressive today. It offers a compelling mix of fruit density, complexity and dynamic energy. Sublime." -Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

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 2013 is defined by its energy. It has a shimmering clarity. There's an incredible cast of bright aromatics and a tactile minerality. 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.
