Pol Roger : Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill 2006

An exceptional Champagne for those of great character

"There is only one answer to the defeat and that is victory," Sir Winston Churchill, to whom we owe this quote was particularly fond of Pol Roger House Champagne. According to him, the House has "the most delectable address in the world” to celebrate moments of glory and forget those of sorrow. In 1975, the House Pol Roger decided to pay tribute to this great character by creating the Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill that is produced only in great vintages. This Cuvee has always been the result of a carefully kept blend, Grands Crus from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill today reveals the strength of his personality after being patiently cellared in the House for 9 years.

This Champagne of character sports a deep golden yellow color. The nose reveals an aromatic palette of great richness with aromas of dried fruit, sweet almond and brioche notes. On the palate, freshness evolves towards round notes of of stewed fruit, dried fruit, and quince. The long and persistent finish ends with generous buttery and fruity notes.
