Obtained from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes coming only from plots classified as Grand Cru and Premier Cru, this great vintage signed by Pol Roger is produced in very limited quantities and only in years considered excellent, those years in which both grapes have reached perfect ripeness. 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, which is the traditional recipe of the Maison, the Vintage ages for at least eight years on the lees, a period of time that gives it class and longevity, precision and pride. A Champagne that embodies the entire Pol Roger style: it is no coincidence that it was Vintage that made Churchill fall in love with the Maison at the time. Very bright golden yellow, with thick and continuous perlage, it has a very fine nose that opens into a fruity range of blackberries, plums and a touch of pineapple, then touching notes of brioche bread and cream, all enriched by a subtle and fresh vein mineral. A champion's taste that combines power with delicacy, it is dry and delicately savory, with a long citrus persistence. Without a doubt, in due time, it will have a return in the long run, if you have the patience to wait a few years for it.
