✨ Technical Specifications
Affectionately known as 'White Foil', Pol Roger Brut Réserve is the definitive ambassador of this historic Épernay house. This non-vintage cuvée is a masterclass in balance, crafted from equal parts of Champagne's three primary grape varieties sourced from some of the region's finest crus. The house's legendary deep, cool cellars—descending thirty meters below ground—maintain a constant temperature of 9°C, which slows the secondary fermentation to produce an exceptionally fine, persistent mousse. Pol Roger's historical connection to Sir Winston Churchill, who famously declared his loyalty to the house, adds a layer of British-French romance to every sip. The Brut Réserve undergoes a minimum of four years of aging on its lees, resulting in a complex harmony of fresh stone fruits, brioche, and a clean, mineral-driven finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1849 by Pol Roger, this venerable Champagne house is situated along the celebrated Avenue de Champagne in Épernay, France. Remaining proudly independent and family-owned across generations of the Pol-Roger and de Billy families, the maison maintains a steadfast commitment to traditional methods, including extensive aging in cool, deep chalk cellars and manual riddling. Pol Roger is internationally celebrated for producing structured, refined Champagnes defined by balance and elegance, ranging from its quintessential non-vintage Brut Réserve to the prestigious, Pinot Noir-dominant Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill.
