Produced only in exceptional years, the "Champagne Pol Roger Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill Brut 2015" is a limited-quantity Champagne embodying luxury and prestige, making it a coveted choice for collectors and Champagne enthusiasts seeking a legendary taste.
The aroma is intense, with notes of ripe peaches, citrus, brioche, honey, and minerals, while the taste is powerful yet elegant, with a silky texture, fruit sweetness, refreshing acidity, and a long-lasting toasted nut aftertaste.
This Champagne was created to honor Sir Winston Churchill, reflecting his philosophy and taste: robustness, structure, and maturity, echoing his famous quote, "My tastes are simple, I am easily satisfied with the best."
Created in 1975 as a tribute to his friendship with the Pol-Roger family, it is made exclusively from "Grand Cru" vineyards, using "Pinot Noir" and "Chardonnay" grapes, the proportion of which remains a family secret; "Pinot Noir" provides firmness, while "Chardonnay" lends elegance.
The unique Champagne chalk and limestone terroir imparts minerality, and the 10 years of aging in the cellars contribute depth of flavor; the 2015 vintage stands out for its ideal grape ripeness and acidity.
Serve at 8-10 °C with shellfish, lobster, crab, or with fried liver in a cream and elk sauce.
Exclusivity and elegance – these two words best describe the Pol Roger champagne house, whose drink was particularly loved by Winston Churchill, and after whom the prestigious "Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill" is even named. For more than 170 years, the independent champagne house has been creating champagne from generation to generation since its founding in 1849, with each bottle testifying to their mastery. The winemakers personally select reliable grape growers and their offered grapes, and actively participate in the entire champagne production process. Pol Roger is also famous for its cool and deep cellars, which significantly influence the slow fermentation and subtle bubbles.
