Taittinger Champagne Nocturne City Lights Rosé

$114.96

12 to 15% of still red wine, sourced from the best Pinots Noirs from the Montagne de Reims and Les Riceys, are added to the final blend to give this cuvée its brilliant colour and vibrant intensity on the palate. Its dosage of 17.5 g/l of sugar, combined with the maturity from slow cellar-ageing, offer this wine a beautiful patina. A delicate mousse and a vivid, generous pink robe introduce a velvety tannic palate. This well-structured Champagne owes its balance to the freshness of the Chardonnay.

Taittinger Nocturne Rosé is a dry Champagne comprising Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier grapes from 30 different villages.

Its intense, vibrant robe reflects the still red wines in its blend. The sensuality of this cuvée and its vivacious personality are a perfect complement to the night owls

THE ‘FOLIE’ OF REASON

In yet another definition, a ‘folie’ can also be an 18th century term for a summer residence in the country which was understated yet elegant and with a comfortable and sophisticated interior. The aristocracy and the bourgeoisie liked to hold literary salons, and sometimes ‘fêtes galantes’ (courtship parties) here at La Marquetterie.
