2015 Blanc de Blancs, Pol Roger

2015 Blanc de Blancs, Pol Roger

The 2015 Brut Blanc de Blancs offers up a more full-bodied, vinous style than the more taut and tightly wound 2013. On the nose, aromas of white pepper, dried herbs and crisp golden orchard fruit intermingle with subtle biscuity notes. There’s an energetic, fleshy fruit core, lively acidity and a precise, chalky finish. Impressive.

Tasting notes

So much bread dough on the nose, together with green-apple and pear undertones that follow through to a full body with soft, creamy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Subtle and polished. Drink now.

The 2015 Brut Blanc de Blancs marries textural intensity with a good deal of freshness. White pepper, dried herbs, chalk, mint and citrus make a strong opening impression. I especially like the energy and tension here, but there’s plenty of depth, too. I would give the 2015 a year or two in bottle, maybe more, as it is quite reticent in the early going. It, too, is seriously impressive for the year. Disgorged: July 2021. Dosage is 7 grams per liter.
