Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill 2013 Champagne

Description

Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill 2013 Champagne

“The wine seduces with its splendid golden colour, intense, with brilliant bursts. The first aroma, subtle, opens with scents of dried flowers (rose petals) that delicately intertwine with peppery notes, revealing a beautiful freshness. At aeration, a few nuances of vanilla and candied fruit complete a nose well in place and fulfilled. The attack in the mouth is well balanced and supported by a hint of citrus, confirming the intense freshness of the first nose. Then the wine proves to be mesmerizing and gourmet; it reveals notes of zesty citrus, quince and green tea, amplified by a deliciously elegant effervescence, a reflection of this powerful cuvée of character. The large proportion of Pinot Noir gives it structure and length as well as a perfect balance between generosity and elegance. A real symphony of sensations, such is the Sir Winston Churchill 2013 cuvée.”

“The Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill, a prestigious cuvée of Maison Pol Roger, was created in tribute to Sir Winston Churchill, with references to the qualities he appreciated in Champagne: robustness, structure and maturity. Even if its exact composition is a secret jealously guarded by members of the Pol-Roger family, it is undeniable that it is based on a formula that its dedicatee would not have denied.
“My tastes are simple, I am easily satisfied with the best,” he liked to say…
Composed exclusively of grapes from the Grands Crus of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay already in production during the Churchilleran era, it is only made in the best vintages. The predominance of Pinot Noir undoubtedly ensures the structure, fullness and robustness of the whole, while Chardonnay gives it elegance, finesse and impertinence. Produced in very small quantities, Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill has remained in their cellars for 10 years. Pol Roger
