Indulge in opulent sweetness. The Cuvée Rich by Pol Roger is a testament to harmonious blending and extended aging, resulting in a Champagne that delights with its rich character and lingering finish.
The Cuvée Rich displays a superb yellow gold colour, with a discreet copper shimmer. 1 It is deep, dense and bright. Tiny lingering bubbles break into a creamy, clear and diffused effervescence and form a continuous, full and delicate thread. At the outset, the nose is clear, elegant and open, mingling notes of dried fruits, sensuous floral fragrances, attractive woody scents and a slight vegetal hint. It then reveals a delicate spiciness and eloquent touches of sweetness. The attack is ample, powerful and complex and the wine is remarkable for its generosity as well as for its power, suppleness and balance. Its pleasing vivacity culminates in succulent fruity flavours together with spicy, soft and sensuous notes.
The Cuvée is the result of the harmonious blend, in equal proportions, of the three Champagne grape varieties: ‘Pinot Noir’, ‘Meunier’ and ‘Chardonnay’ from 30 different crus. 25% reserve wines are used to produce this cuvée.
The Cuvée Rich is kept in the cellar for a minimum of 4 years. Following disgorging, it is topped up by a dosage of 34g/l to enhance its sweet flavour.
Serve at 6-8 °C with fruit salads, soft desserts, Asian dishes.
