Extra Cuvée de Rèserve, Pol Roger, Champagne
An indisputable classic, Pol Roger offers heightened grande marque quality and prestige, where Grand Cru-vineyard chardonnay and pinot noir combine to offer the utmost in champagne drinking pleasure.
"One of the great signatures of the region, its calligraphy flowing with elegance, panache and balance, the last reflected in the equal proportions of the three great varieties of Champagne. A flamboyant straw gold lustre, and an immediately seductive nose, encyclopaedic in its indulgence. Nougat, praline, white pepper, spice and nectarine were first to the page for this taster, but there is much more behind that, the sugar discrete yet edifying, the long yeast ageing responsible for a happy and altogether luminous marriage of power and finesse. Consistently excellent." 92 pts., Simon Field MW, decanter.com
