Pommery - Pop Champagne NV (187ml SPLIT)
This wine has everything to make it the contemporary Champagne, the one we love to drink because it boasts all the attributes: freshness, roundness and fullness.
Pommery Description
A blended wine in the best sense of the term, it combines the three Champagne varietals: pinot noir, pinot meunier and chardonnay. Pinot noir is the dominant grape, affording roundness and fullness in the mouth. Pinot meunier, to back up the pinot noir, adds that dash. Chardonnay, largely from the Grands Crus and the Reims vineyards, procures that pleasurable freshness.
James Suckling: 92 Points
Peach, lemon, grapefruit, biscuit and some honey on the nose. Creamy and round with a juicy, peachy and lightly off-dry palate. Sleek bubbles. One third each of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier.
Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
The familiar nonvintage Champagne from this producer is ripe, soft and deliciously balanced. It is a ripe wine, with a fresher, crisp and textured element that gives style as well as richness. Drink now.
