WINEMAKER'S NOTE
"One of the great mysteries to me ( less metaphysically challenging than othergreat mysteries perhaps) is why Pol Roger's Blanc de Blancs is not morepopular. Sourced from Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, namelyCramant, Le Mesnil, Oger, Avize and Oirey, and afforded generous ageing onlees, this is a benchmark Chardonnay, combining feminine elegance, chalky charmand distinctive (almost paradoxically) ripeness, with words such as pineapple,apricot and quince flowing from the taster's pen. Try, in a moment ofindulgence, with lobster." (Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)
