2008 Blanc de Blancs, Pol Roger
The wine displays a pale yellow-gold colour with delicate green glints and a remarkable effervescence in the glass. On the nose, the first notes are of pink grapefruit coupled with almond, imparting a delightful freshness and delicacy, which progressively yield to aromas of white flowers and apricot. On the palate, the texture is invigoratingly fresh and zesty, typical of this outstanding vintage. Harmoniously well-balanced and full-bodied. [Winemaker’s note] Great with shellfish or warm cinnamon-laced apple cake.
