Pinot Noir produced from some of the best crus of the Montagne de Reims. Pinot Meunier is issued from several crus from the Valle de la Marne and Epernay area. Chardonnay comes from Epernay and some of the best crus of the Côtes des Blancs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePol Roger Brut Reserve diplays a beautiful golden straw coloured hue, as well as abundant and fine bubbles. Powerful and attractive nose, it first delivers aromas of fruit (pear, mango) and then releases light flavours of honeysuckle and white jasmine, lingering on vanilla and brioche notes. Behind a frank and dynamic attack, the wine encompasses a nice harmony and a pleasant freshness, whilst preserving some structure. On the palate, flavours of cooked fruit (quince jelly, apricot jam) happily mingle with fragrances of beeswax and acacia honey. The long-lasting aromas, composed of both fruity (candied orange peel, tangerine) and spicy notes (cardamom, anis) is outstanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlc: 12% \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhiskeyonline | Whiskyonline NZ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pol Roger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42593268793580,"sku":"160239","price":105.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0533\/6412\/9964\/products\/PolRogerBrutReserveNV750ml-France.png?v=1648591006"},{"product_id":"pol-roger-rich-demi-sec-nv-750ml-france","title":"Pol Roger Rich (Demi-Sec) NV Champagne 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003ePol Roger Rich (Demi-Sec) NV 750ml - France\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRich NV is a precise replica of Brut Réserve NV being blended from 30 still base wines from different vineyards, different vintages and the three main grape varieties which dominate the champagne region: Pinot Noir contributes body, depth of character and life extending tannins and comes from the villages of the Montagne de Reims - Verzy, Verzenay, Mailly, Ambonnay, Mardeuil and Louvois; Chardonnay provides the lightness, elegance and finesse and is drawn from Epernay itself and the villages of the Côte des Blancs - Cuis, Oiry, Oger, Vertus, Moussy and Chouilly; Pinot Meunier supplies youthful freshness, vigour and plump character with the grapes coming from the Vallée d'Epernay - Vincelles, Venteuil, Troissy, Damery, Vandières, Brugny, Chavot, Monthelon and Pierry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe nose opens with beguiling hints of beeswax and apricot which are repeated on the palate and reinforced with notes of acacia honey.
