Tasting notes

Pale crystalline yellow with a very fine bead. The nose is reticent at first, then gives up pineapple and white peach, and with air fresh butter and pastry cream. The palate is rounded and ample, broader than the colour suggests, closing on a long lemon and citrus finish that points to good cellaring potential.

About this wine

Pol Roger is a family house in Épernay, founded in 1849 and still independently owned. Its Brut Vintage is declared only in years the cellar judges worth it, and always in limited quantity.

The 2018 blends Pinot Noir with Chardonnay from twenty Grand and Premier Cru villages across the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs. Picking began on 20 August — unusually early, a mark of how warm that growing season ran — and continued for some four weeks. The wine then matured in the house cellars thirty-three metres underground.

Pinot Noir gives the frame, Chardonnay the lift, and the long cold ageing does the rest.
