Pol Roger Rose 2019
Pol Roger does not make a Non-Vintage Rosé, preferring to release only in vintage years. The Brut Rose Vintage 2019 is produced from a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In order to obtain its delicate color and subtle nose 18% Pinot Noir, from selected vineyards in Bouzy, Ambonnay and Cumieres, is vinified "en rouge" and added to the blend prior to the second fermentation.
TASTING NOTES
On the eye: The wine boasts a lovely, luminous, bright appearance, unchanged since blending, and set off by fine bubbles. It reveals a delicate salmon pink hue with attractive pink and golden highlights.
On the nose: The nose is generous, immediately plunging us into a world of ripe red fruits (wild strawberries, black cherries) wrapped in aromas of rose petals. Delectable notes of strawberry tart and fruit drops emerge, underscored by exotic nuances of pineapple and lychee, as the wine breathes and gradually opens up. Fresh and expressive, it shows both richness and beautiful complexity.
On the palate: The palate reveals a silky, full-bodied texture. In harmony with the nose, it offers a spectrum of fruity flavours (strawberry, sour cherry, rhubarb and gooseberry) lifted by a delicate note of bitter almond. Its structure, defined by a lovely acidity, precision and tension, imparts both energy and finesse. The tannins are smooth, the balance is assured, and the tension is invigorating. Rich yet refined, this cuvée is full of personality. A long, elegant finish leaves an impression of freshness and finesse, heralding a very bright future for this champagne.
