1998 Pol Roger Extra Dry

An embarrassment of riches from which to select a favourite Champagne, but Pol Roger never disappoints. Family-run, and always pursuing the highest standards of quality in all that they do, Pol Roger aims for finesse and consistency in all their wines. The Non-Vintage White Foil is one of the most reliable on the market but the vintage wines display a different level of excellence, often requiring 10 years ageing before they achieve the kind of nutty complexity on the nose and exquisite definition on the palate displayed by this great wine.
(Alun Griffiths MW, BBR Wine Director)

Complex and compelling, this vintage Champagne is dominated by Pinot Noir, the style Sir Winston preferred. It has a vivid, refreshing grapefruit acidity and lingering purity of fruit, yet is framed with the elegance that has become the signature of this great house.
(Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)
