Brut 2013

The Brut Vintage 2013 from Pol Roger is made from 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, harvested in grands and premiers crus. It is produced in limited quantity and ages for nine years in the house's cellar in Épernay. This shows in a very fine mousse and a rich, elegant nose.

On the palate it is fine and subtle, with plenty of balance rather than loud effects. The Pinot Noir gives structure, the Chardonnay freshness. That makes it a good companion at the table: it goes with poultry and mushrooms, chicken with a foie gras stuffing, or a poultry soup. Serve it at 9 to 11 °C in a white wine glass, which shows off its aromas better than a narrow flute. A complimentary gift box is included.
