✨ Technical Specifications
Pol Roger's Vinotheque series represents the absolute pinnacle of the house's library releases, offering a rare glimpse into the extraordinary aging potential of their vintage cuvées. Sourced from the deepest, coolest chalk cellars in Épernay—descending 30 meters below ground where temperatures remain a constant 9.5°C—these bottles undergo extended lees aging for decades before receiving a late disgorgement. The Vinothèque Rosé is crafted using the traditional assemblage method, blending the house's signature vintage base of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with a small percentage of still red wine sourced from the finest crus of the Montagne de Reims. This painstaking process yields a Champagne of breathtaking complexity, combining the fresh, vibrant red fruit character of a classic rosé with the tertiary, savory depth of multi-decade autolytic aging.
