Virtually all of the stained glass associated with medieval structures was done during the Victorian era or even more recently.

A matter of the technology for producing the colors as well as taste.

La Sainte Chapelle in Paris is one.
If you read up on the history of stained glass and the progression in style from the Romanesque to the Gothic period, you will find out some cool stuff that I am too tired to try to put into words right now. But basically the goal in the Gothic period was to remove as much of the wall as possible and replace it with glass, to let in as much light as possible. La Sainte Chapelle is one of the places where this was most successful.
The actual glass may no longer be original, but the effect of the light streaming into the chapel is still stunning.

I also really love the rose window in Notre Dame de Paris.

Yes. Just about every cathedral in Europe has some.
