Pol Roger Brut 2018 Vintage Champagne is a refined and limited-edition vintage champagne that reflects the exceptional craftsmanship of the Pol Roger House. Made from a traditional blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, this vintage is sourced from 20 Grands and Premiers Crus vineyards in the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs regions. Aged for 7 years in Pol Roger’s deep cellars, the 2018 vintage is now ready to be enjoyed by champagne connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes:

  • Colour: Pale yellow, showcasing youthful vibrancy and elegance.
  • Nose: Rich stone-fruit aromas with layers of yeast contact, bringing out an enticing complexity and intensity.
  • Palate: Abundant in body and complexity, with a beautiful balance of acidity and length. Still young and tight, but showcasing serious potential to develop over time, making it a worthy successor to previous great vintages like 1988, 1998, and 2008.

Story of the 2018 Vintage:
The 2018 growing season was marked by unpredictable weather, from a wet end to 2017 to a cold February with some snowfall. However, from April to June, above-average sunshine and warm temperatures spurred rapid fruit development, leading to early flowering in Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier. The climate conditions resulted in perfectly ripened grapes, ideal for creating a balanced vintage champagne.

Vinification & Maturation:
After harvesting, the must undergoes two débourbages (settlings) to ensure purity. A slow, cool fermentation follows, with the temperature kept below 18°C, and each variety and vineyard are vinified separately to preserve their distinct characteristics. The wine undergoes full malolactic fermentation, and secondary fermentation occurs in Pol Roger’s deep cellars, 33 metres below street level. Aged for 7 years before release, the wine undergoes traditional hand remuage (riddling), preserving the fine and persistent mousse Pol Roger is famous for.

About Pol Roger Brut 2018 Vintage:
This vintage champagne is a true expression of the House’s dedication to quality, made only when climatic conditions permit the production of grapes with outstanding ripeness. The 2018 vintage is poised to age beautifully, rewarding those with the patience to allow further maturation in the bottle. Its balance of rich flavours and lively acidity make it a delightful champagne to enjoy now or save for a future celebration.

Serving Suggestions:
Serve Pol Roger Brut 2018 Vintage chilled between 8-10°C. It pairs wonderfully with fine dishes such as seafood, poultry, or even light cheeses. Its complexity and depth also make it an excellent choice for special occasions and celebrations.
