The Brut "Vintage" embodies the attractive and seductive character of the French bubbles, which expresses itself through a language of excellence.

The "Vintage" Brut of Pol Roger is a Champagne composed, according to the traditional blend of the house, of 60% Pinot Nero and 40% Chardonnay. These grapes come from 20 plots, all classified as Grand Cru or Premier Cru, located in the Montagne de Reims area and the Côte des Blancs. Following a meticulous harvest, the grapes are gently pressed, and the resulting must undergoes cold decantation. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel containers, as does the malolactic fermentation. Only after these two phases are the separately vinified parcels blended, and the base wine obtained is bottled to initiate the second fermentation. This occurs inside bottles placed 33 meters deep in the historic Pol Roger cellars. Manual riddling and a long aging period of more than 8 years precede its release to the market.

Pol Roger Brut “Vintage” Champagne reveals its recognizable charm through its golden color and fine, persistent bubbles. Elegance and delicacy refine an intense complexity that opens with fresh citrus notes and sweeter hints of apricot and peach, before revealing notes of dried fruit and quince.On the palate, its seductive character manifests in the creaminess of the sip and in the full, soft body, simultaneously refined by freshness. It lingers in a finish that recalls ripe fruit. To add a touch of nobility to your cellar, a chapter of history told by Pol Roger is a must.
