Description

Champagne Pol Roger Brut Réserve is the definitive house-style, composed from 30 still base wines drawn from at least three vintages, and the three varieties of Champagne blended in equal proportion: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. On the nose, the Champagne is dominated by white flowers, green apple, brioche and a trace of minerality. On the palate there are notes of stone fruits, a certain nuttiness and a hint of honey supporting the freshness of the acidity. UK stock receives an additional 6 months post-disgorgement ageing so it is ready to drink upon release but cellaring for a few years will reveal greater depths. The apéritif Champagne par excellence, but one which has sufficient backbone to be drunk with fish and even spicy dishes.[#intro]Reassuringly hard to find, Pol Roger is the apéritif Champagne par excellence…[/intro]
