Assemblage et vinification

This Brut Réserve is made from an equal-parts blend of the three Champagne grape varieties, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, from around 30 crus mainly located in the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, the Épernay area and the Côte des Blancs. Pol Roger incorporates approximately 25% reserve wines to ensure continuity of the house style, deepen aromatic complexity and achieve precise texture. The traditional Champagne vinification, followed by around 4 years' lees ageing in the cellars, provides a fine mousse and an aromatic patina of delicate character. Manual riddling and classic disgorgement contribute to the purity of the effervescence and the clarity of the bouquet. The dosage falls within the Brut category, striking a balance between indulgence and liveliness, while the alcohol level is around 12 to 12.5%. In the Jéroboam format, the development is particularly harmonious, the bottle's service stability offering consistent freshness and a heightened sense of finesse glass after glass.

Notes de dégustation

• Appearance : Pale gold, luminous, crossed by steady effervescence and an airy mousse that testify to long lees ageing and careful handling of the reserve wines.
• Nose : A complex, precise bouquet combining white flowers, pear and yellow fruits with more developed notes of brioche, vanilla and honey. On opening up, touches of candied citrus and soft spices add definition and length.
• Palate : A clean, chiselled attack revealing a subtle balance between vibrant freshness and richness. The fruity thread is wrapped in a caressing texture, the finish extending on delicately candied citrus, lifted by a straight acidity and a mouthwatering persistence.

Température de service et conseils

To reveal all its refinement, serve this Jéroboam very chilled in tulip glasses that respect the finesse of its mousse and the precision of its bouquet. With a large format, allow for extended chilling and maintain temperature stability in an ice bucket to preserve the wine's aromatic integrity from the first to the last glass. Open the bottle gently, let the wine settle for a few moments, then pour without haste to encourage the development of a silky effervescence. Storing it away from light, in a quiet place at a constant temperature, will honour the cuvée's purity before service.

Accords mets et vin

• Aperitifs : fine oysters, caviar, comté gougères. The elegant tension awakens the palate while the brioche notes complement the delicate iodized flavours.
• Starters : scallop carpaccio, marinated salmon, white asparagus. The zesty freshness and fine bubbles support the delicate textures of these dishes.
• Main courses : roasted free-range poultry, mushroom risotto, turbot with beurre blanc. The harmonious structure answers the dish's richness without weighing it down.
• Cheeses : aged comté, beaufort, Brie de Meaux. Milky and briochey nuances find a perfectly measured echo.
• Desserts : thin citrus tart, vanilla shortbread, almond financier. The candied citrus finish gently prolongs the charm.
