Taittinger Nocturne Rosé “City Lights” is a structured, voluptuous champagne that presents an elegant, well-integrated balance of sugar, acid and tannins.

About the Grape

Chardonnay
Though it has a distinctive profile, Chardonnay reflects other factors such as soil composition and vinification technique. Chardonnay is a reliable, hardy and prolific vine whose only real vulnerabilities are frost and uneven development of fruit.
