Chateau/Producer: | Pol Roger Brut Rose | Country: | France | Region: | Champagne | Wine Score: | 93 | Notes: | Medium salmon pink with fine persistent bubble streams rising lazily from the bottom of the flute. On the nose, apparent dry yeasty notes. On the palate, a delightful fine mousse with an abundance of stone-fruit acidty with hints of framboise and strawberry of the pinot noir atop the developing honeyed complexity of chardonnay and the prominent yeasty bread crusts from the lees. Medium length, finishing a bit tart from the first pouring, but later pourings indicated a harmonising of the wine, with the honey ameliorating the initial forward acidity. | Tasting Date: | 2003-12-20 |
