Pol Roger - Blanc de Blancs

Pol Roger’s 2016 Brut Blanc de Blancs is a compelling expression of the vintage. It opens with an aromatic profile of crisp pear, lemon zest and freshly baked bread, mingling with notes of early white blossoms and a subtle reductive framing. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, taut and incisive, more tensile and linear than the richer, more rounded 2015 iteration. Bracing acidity drives the wine toward a long, saline finish. This is a quintessential Blanc de Blancs: precise, energetic and poised for graceful evolution, promising to develop further layers and toasty sophistication with age.
