Merchant's description

Disgorged in 1997 with a dosage of 10g/L, the Pol Roger Brut 1988 reveals enticing aromas of honey, white mushroom, grilled nuts, and baked apple. The palate is rich with flavours of baked apple and brioche, accompanied by the vintage`s characteristic robust, mineral acidity.
