The 1999 Pol Roger Vintage Brut is a vintage blend of approximately 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay sourced from 20 Grand and Premier Cru vineyards. The nose presents aromas of roses, marzipan and toasted brioche, with underlying notes of candied yellow fruit, quince, and honey developing as the wine opens. The texture on the palate is silky yet dense, displaying freshness with a core of candied citrus and a subtle, lengthy finish that retains a touch of minerality and pepper, reflecting its extended ageing for seven years in Pol Roger’s cool cellars.
