Pol Roger Brut Réserve Champagne NV, Champagne France
Introduction:
The NV Pol Roger Brut Réserve is a hallmark of classic Champagne style—balanced, refined, and elegant. Known as “White Foil,” it represents the house’s signature cuvée, delivering a blend of freshness, richness, and finesse that defines Pol Roger’s reputation.
Terroir:
Sourced from 30 different crus across the Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, and Côte des Blancs. Vineyards sit on chalk and limestone soils, providing the minerality, tension, and longevity that Champagne is known for. The cool climate ensures slow ripening, high acidity, and vibrant aromatics.
Tasting notes:
Pol Roger's signature cuvée, the Brut Réserve, is composed of equal parts pinot noir, pinot meunier, and chardonnay, from 30 different crus. 25% reserve wines are used in the final blend, and the wine is cellar-aged for three years. It displays a beautiful golden straw-colored hue, as well as abundant and fine bubbles. It delivers aroms of pears and mangos entwined with notes of honeysuckle, white jasmine, vanilla, and brioche. On the palate, flavors of quince jelly and apricot jam happily mingle with acacia honey, candied orange peel, tangerine, cardamom, and anise.*

92 points, James Suckling:
"Bread crust, sliced apples, citrus, and some raspberries on the nose of this refreshing Champagne. Crisp on the palate, with fine bubbles and a tight, clean finish. A third each of pinot noir, meunier, and chardonnay. Based on the 2021 vintage. Disgorged October 2024." (7/15/25)

91 points, Wine Advocate:
"The latest rendition of Pol Roger’s NV Brut Réserve is based on the 2021 vintage and includes 25% reserve wines from the 2020, 2019, and 2018 vintages. Disgorged in October 2024 with a dosage of eight grams per liter, the wine bursts from the glass with an expressive bouquet of crisp pear, orange zest, ripe peach, and delicate pastry notes. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, with a vibrant core of fruit and admirable balance, despite what might sound like a relatively generous dosage. It is infused with bright acidity and culminates in a persistent, saline finish. Composed in equal parts of pinot noir, chardonnay, and pinot meunier, this cuvée is immediately appealing upon release yet possesses the structure to reward several years of cellaring, revealing the charm of a finely matured Champagne."
