Tasting notes
Taittinger's Nocturne is a special sparkling wine from the Champagne region, beautifully blending Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. It's got that signature elegance of Taittinger, especially highlighting the grace of Chardonnay. Opening this bottle feels like setting the stage for a memorable night.
In the 18th volume, this wine appears to comfort Shizuku after his loss in the fifth Apostle battle at Monopole. It's described with a tender sweetness, like a fleeting romance, bringing to mind a seductive blonde signorina. It seems to ease his heartache with its gentle charm.
Pour it into a glass and watch those Nocturne bubbles dance lightly. The aroma opens up with hints of pear and white peach, creating a tropical vibe. The acidity is smooth, and as you sip, the richness of the fruit unfolds, leaving a gentle sweetness lingering on the palate. The finish is long and pleasant, perfect for savoring a quiet evening.
Nocturne truly showcases Taittinger's elegance and balance, making it a delightful Champagne to enhance any special moment. It's a bottle that turns a special night into something even more intimate.
