Pol Roger Vintage 2009 is a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay from Epernay. This 2009 bottling reflects a warm, solar vintage that produced grapes with high sugar levels and phenolic maturity. Sourced from 20 Grand Cru and Premier Cru villages, the must underwent two cold settlings before a cool fermentation in stainless steel. The wine displays a rich, gourmand character with notes of honeycomb, baked apricot and toasted almonds. Despite the warmth of the year, the house style maintains a firm acidic backbone to balance the opulent fruit. It offers a generous, broad mid-palate and a long, warming finish that demonstrates the richness of the 2009 harvest.
