The Royal Champagne
In its 160 years of history, Pol Roger has carved out one of the most flattering reputations in the select circle of the leading Champagne houses. It was famously adored by Britain’s wartime Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill – legend has it he drank 42,000 bottles of Pol Roger in his life, and he only discovered it aged 34! A favorite among the Royal household, this Non-Vintage bottling was served at the receptions following the weddings of Prince William and Kate Middleton in 2011, Harry and Megan in May 2018, and Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank in October 2018. Moving beyond statesmen and royalty, we might add it is a perennial Sherry-Lehmann staff favorite, loved for its style and quality, but also its price point. Prized for its very fine bubbles and creamy texture, it has flavors of delicate poached pear, candied lemon zest and ginger that mingle with hints of brioche and vanilla. Comprised of equal parts Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, it is astonishingly well made for the price. Bearing the Royal Warrant and with elegant packaging, it will fit in equally at home for any night of the week, and also makes a very sophisticated gift.
