refined and gorgeously delineated flavors supported by an almost pungent minerality on the textured

the 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvee Réservée is a classic

Pol Roger, Blanc de Blancs Vintage other_regions disgorged JanuaryPol Roger's 2012 Brut Blanc de Blancs is terrific. The natural ripeness of the year amps up the Chardonnay flavors. Rich and ample in the glass, with tons of depth, the 2012 really shines. Readers should expect a pretty big Champagne, but all the elements are nicely balanced. Disgorged, February, 2019.
