Regarding the Champagne Pol Roger Blanc de Blancs 2016
A pure, chiselled expression of Chardonnay, Blanc de Blancs 2016 embodies the excellence of the Côte des Blancs grands crus. Produced from exceptional terroirs - Oiry, Chouilly, Cramant, Avize, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger - it precisely reveals all the nobility of this grape variety, in an interpretation that is at once elegant, mineral and profoundly authentic.
Its crystal-clear color gives way to an effervescence of extreme finesse. The delicate, racy nose gradually opens up to a signature chalky minerality, sublimated by notes of white flowers, dried fruit and yellow fruit. With aeration, nuances of citrus and exotic fruit enrich this aromatic composition of great subtlety. On the palate, the precision is remarkable: a lively attack, a delicately crisp body, and a saline finish with elegant persistence.
As a gastronomic Champagne, it's equally perfect with an exceptional aperitif or with refined seafood, noble fish or iodized culinary creations. It is aimed at connoisseurs in search of pure emotions and intense mineral sensations. Endowed with a strong ageing potential, this 2016 vintage will evolve gracefully over the years, gaining in complexity and depth, while retaining its signature freshness.
It offers a precise reading of the vintage: a champagne of character, taut and luminous, promised to evolve beautifully.
