Taittinger For Valentine's

Two celebratory wines for Valentine's from Taittinger

If you want to make a statement on Valentine's day, fizz is a good start; high-quality pink Champagne will show that you really know what you are doing.

Here are two from Taittinger.

Taittinger Brut Prestige Rosé (£50.60 Waitrose, Asda, Wine Rack, Majestic, John Lewis, independents) delicate nose with some brioche leading to delicate ripe red-berry fruit; fresh and mineral with a fine mousse. Very elegant.

Good.

Drink as an aperitif or match with light seafood.

Taittinger Nocturne Rosé ‘City Lights’ NV (£54.50 Harrods, independents) fresh and substantial, with a fine mousse and the weightiness of a generous dosage; dry and balanced with orchard fruits, citrus and delicate raspberry. Refined and easy-drinking.

Good.

Drink as a sipper throughout the evening, or match with soused salmon or prawns.
