  • This was created in homage to Sir Winston Churchill, who was a great devotee of Pol Roger's Champagnes. The wine has an inviting, bright golden hue and a fine, regular stream of bubbles. It is a round and creamy Champagne with aromas of dried fruit, peppered spice, and exotic fruit. On the generous palate, notes of brioche and a fine concentration are present, with a smoky weight and terrific length on the finish.

The Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill is made only in the best vintage years. He is always released later than other vintage-dated Champagnes from Pol Roger, reflecting Churchill's appreciation for older wines. The must underwent two débourbages (settings), one at the press house immediately after pressing and the second, a débourbage à froid, which took place in stainless steel tanks at 6°C over a 24-hour period. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks at temperatures not exceeding 18°C, with each variety and each village kept separately until final blending. The wine underwent full malolactic conversion. Secondary fermentation took place in a bottle at 9°C in the lowest Pol Roger cellars (33 metres below street level), where the wine was kept until it underwent remuage (riddling) by hand, a rarity in Champagne nowadays. Dosage: 7g/l.
