The Distinguished Tradition of Pol Roger Champagne
Pol Roger, founded in 1849 in Épernay, France, by the man himself, has long been associated with elegance and refined taste in the world of champagne. Esteemed for its deep-rooted history and consistent quality, Pol Roger remains a family-owned maison, upholding the values of integrity, sophistication, and excellence.
This house gained international fame early on, particularly noted as the favored champagne of Sir Winston Churchill, who famously remarked that he could not live without "Pol Roger Champagne." In his honor, Pol Roger later released the "Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill" which is crafted to mirror the robust, mature style that Churchill preferred.
Pol Roger is renowned for its rigorous selection of grapes, primarily sourced from premier and grand cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de la Marne, and the Côte des Blancs. This dedication ensures that every bottle maintains a high standard of quality and complexity. The champagnes feature a distinctive blend of pinot noir and chardonnay, contributing to their creamy texture and crisp, vibrant flavors.
The house’s commitment to tradition is also evident in its production methods, which include extended cellar aging and hand-riddling, a labor-intensive process that enhances the champagne's clarity and character. This meticulous attention to detail results in champagnes that are not only rich in flavor but also have a fine, persistent mousse.
Pol Roger offers a range of champagnes from the robust Vintage Brut to the pure and expressive Pure Brut, accommodating diverse palates and occasions. For enthusiasts and connoisseurs looking to enjoy or gift a bottle of Pol Roger, ensuring that this symbol of celebratory elegance can be part of your significant moments.
