Pol Roger Brut Rosé Vintage 2019

Product Description: Pol Roger Brut Rosé Vintage 2019 is a Champagne rosé shaped by precision, patience, and the house’s longstanding commitment to structure and balance. Sourced from Grand and Premier Cru vineyards across the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs in France, this vintage expression blends predominantly Pinot Noir with a measured proportion of Chardonnay. The Pinot Noir component includes still red wine from selected parcels in Bouzy and Ambonnay, lending both colour and quiet power, while Chardonnay contributes lift and definition. The 2019 vintage reflects a warm, even growing season, delivering fruit of clarity and ripeness without excess. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel to preserve varietal purity, followed by extended maturation on lees in Pol Roger’s deep chalk cellars beneath Épernay. These cellars, among the coolest and deepest in Champagne, slow the ageing process and refine the wine’s texture. The house style remains evident in the fine bead, composed structure, and restrained use of dosage. Notably, Pol Roger continues to riddle all vintage cuvées by hand, a traditional practice that reinforces its reputation for meticulous craftsmanship. This rosé offers both immediate appeal and the capacity to evolve, with a cellaring window of 8 to 15 years from vintage. Its balance of fruit concentration and acidity makes it a versatile partner at the table, particularly with dishes such as roast duck, seared tuna, or salmon with herb butter.
