Champagne Pol Roger Extra Cuvée de Reserve Chardonnay 1996

Champagne, FranceIntense toasted lees, baked apple, mineral, brioche, apple skin and citrus nose. Rich, round and quite crisp, fairly dry brut style. Lots of toasty, brioche, baked apple, nutty, mineral, licorice flavours with a big lemon lime peel finish. Definitely on the higher acid side and will need to age a few more years.Tasted: 17 November 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
