Today we taste Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Rose 2013. Essi Avellan shares great information on the changes to this cuvee, that have made it so utterly delicious.
97/100 Antonio Galloni
The 2013 Comtes de Champagne Rosé is a gorgeous, exotic wine. Sweet dried cherry, kirsch, tobacco, rose petal, cedar and mint weave across the palate in a sumptuous, racy Rosé that delivers on all fronts. This fruit was picked during the last October harvest in Champagne, except for some small picks in 2021 and 2024. The 2013 is so expressive today. It offers a compelling mix of fruit density, complexity and dynamic energy. Sublime. Dosage is 9 grams per liter. Disgorged: July 2025.
