Straw yellow and with a golden hue in color, the Pol Roger NV Réserve Brut displays a brilliant, perfectly ripe but also fresh, highly elegant and refined fruit aroma on the nose; think of cooked pip fruits like pears and apples, but also quince-confiture and yellow stone fruits, such as apricots and peaches intermixed with vanilla, brioche (pain aux raisins), some nutty flavors and also some white floral notes. On the palate, this medium-bodied Brut is as round (if not pretty sweet) and fruit-driven as it is delicate, pure and very elegant. The mousse is deliciously fine and leads this charming and perfectly balanced fizz to a long, aromatic, stunningly dry and slightly mineral, impressively long finish. This is extremely well done Champagne from equal parts of Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay sourced in 30 different crus.

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.
