Pol Roger, Brut Réserve, Nv Shiraz Weingut Stadlmann's organic Pinot NoirChampagne Pol Roger Brut Reserve is dominated by white flowers, green apple, brioche and a trace of minerality on the nose. On the palate there are notes of stone fruits, a certain nuttiness and a hint of honey supporting the freshness of the acidity. Wine destined for the UK market receives an additional 6 months post disgorgement ageing so that it is ready to drink upon release, but cellaring for a few years will reveal even greater depth.
