Robert Parker
TAITTINGER, COMTES DE CHAMPAGNE ROSE 2007
CHAMPAGNE
“A complex bouquet of blood orange, minty raspberries, red plums, dried flowers and warm brioche. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, chalky and tensile, sharing a racy, chiseled profile with its Blanc de Blancs cousin. Deep, concentrated and tightly wound, the wine concludes with a long, sapid finish. This is an intense, racy Comtes Rosé with a long future ahead of it. “ Robert Parker 96/100

History and anecdotes
In 1734, Jacques Fourneaux founded a Champagne wine company in order to work with the most beautiful vineyards which were holded by benedictine abbeys at the time. After World War I, the House was established in a private mansion which was before Counts of Champagne’s property. Then, in 1932, Pierre Taittinger became the owner of Forest-Fourneaux and Château de la Marquetterie which he discovered during World War I. At this time, the champagne adventure started. Nowadays, Vitalie Taittinger is running the estate.
