Pol Roger - Brut Champagne NV (750ml)
Pol Roger Description
"White Foil" is never sold until the youngest component is a minimum of 3 years old...This additional maturity contributes much to the reputation "White Foil" enjoys. "White Foil" generally contains the wines of at least two vintages, often three or four. Reserve wines compose between 20-30% of the traditional blend.
James Suckling: 92 Points
Fresh Amalfi lemons, pear skins, apples, rhubarb and hints of anise on the nose. Excellent depth and flavor concentration here, with a medium body and creamy bubbles. Fruit and spice deliciously integrated.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The current release of Pol Roger's NV Brut Réserve is quite dramatic, bursting with aromas of mandarin oil, honeycomb, elderflower, fresh bread and musky peach. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, it's generous and textural, with a rich core of fruit, lively acids and a pillowy mousse.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
This is the nonvintage cuvée from this producer. It is in a rich style, with a high proportion of Pinot Noir, very much the house style. This bottling is fresh and hinting at maturity.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Bright and open-knit, with a lively, chalky mousse. Oyster shell and smoke hints underscore flavors of poached apricot, Gala apple, lemon curd and ground ginger. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
