Pol Roger Champagne Brut Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill

The brilliant golden hue and delicate bubbles of this 2018 are a testament to the champagne's long ageing in the Champagne House's deepest cellars. The well-balanced nose is still shy but already shows a lovely polish. Notes of white flowers, citrus and dried apricot mingle with aromas of blond tobacco and gently peppered sweet spices. On the palate, the wine is clean with a vibrant freshness. Minerality and tension are interwoven in a structure that is both complex and elegant. The build of the palate is both energetic and rened. The aromas of blood orange and pastry are beautifully complemented by a hint of fresh raspberry. The nish is long, generous and full of promise.
