Profile & Story
Pol Roger's Brut Reserve is the house's flagship non-vintage cuvee, a blend in equal parts of the three Champagne grape varieties - Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay - drawn from 30 different crus, with 25% reserve wines. The Pinot Noir (from top crus of the Montagne de Reims) lends structure and power, the Pinot Meunier (Vallee de la Marne and Epernay) freshness and fruitiness, and the Chardonnay (Epernay and the Cote des Blancs) aromatic complexity and finesse. The wine ages four years in Pol Roger's cellars before release.
Tasting Notes
A beautiful golden straw hue with abundant, fine bubbles. Aromas of pear and mango lead into light notes of honeysuckle and white jasmine, lingering on vanilla and brioche. On the palate, cooked fruit - quince jelly, apricot jam - mingles with beeswax and acacia honey, finishing with candied orange peel, tangerine, cardamom, and anise.
Pairing Recommendation
An elegant, balanced champagne versatile enough to accompany an entire meal.
