The Brut Vintage 2016, which is produced in small quantities, has been matured in their cellars for a long time before being poured and offered for sale.

About Pol Roger
Over the past 170 years, and six generations, this Champagne house has built a fantastic and critically acclaimed reputation. Pol Roger was established in 1849 in Epernay in the heart of Champagne.

The house is one of the most traditional in Champagne and the philosophy is, and has always been, to follow a sensible and calm development, and never compromise with quality and traditions.

The excellent quality is the result of know-how passed down through generations. Pol Roger owns 92 hectares of vineyards with canes of exceptionally fine quality. From 2001-2011, the house underwent a complete renovation, for instance. an expansion of their production and new stainless steel vessels. In 2021, Pol Roger was voted No. 2 by Drinks International "World's most admired Champagne Brands 2021".

Pol Roger Champagne was Sir Winston Churchill's favorite Champagne brand. He stated, among other things: "I am always content with the best", and: "I cannot live without champagne. In Victory I deserve it, in defeat I need it”. Winston Churchill was so fond of the Champagne from Pol Roger that he named his racehorse after the house, and he became a close friend of the house. As a tribute to Sir Winston Churchill, Pol Roger created their Prestige Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill.
