Blend:
Pol Roger Rich is a carefully balanced blend of the three classic Champagne grape varieties:

• Pinot Noir: Adds structure, body, and power, primarily sourced from the best crus of the Montagne de Reims.
• Pinot Meunier: Brings freshness, roundness, and fruitiness, sourced from the Vallée de la Marne and the Epernay area.
• Chardonnay: Provides aromatic complexity, finesse, and elegance, coming from Epernay and the best crus of the Côte des Blancs.

The cuvée is made from 25% reserve wines and undergoes four years of ageing in Pol Roger’s cellars before disgorging. A dosage of 34g/l enhances its sweet flavour, creating the perfect balance between sugar and natural acidity.

Vinification & Maturation:
The grapes are delicately pressed, and the must undergoes a cold settling process before fermentation. The wine is vinified in stainless steel vats at low temperatures to preserve the purity of each variety, followed by malolactic fermentation. The secondary fermentation and maturing take place in Pol Roger’s cool cellars, located 33 metres below street level. After traditional hand riddling, the wine rests for a minimum of three months before release.

Tasting Notes:

• Colour: A superb yellow-gold hue with a discreet copper shimmer, deep and bright, accompanied by tiny, lingering bubbles.
• Nose: The nose is clear, elegant, and open, with notes of dried fruits, floral fragrances, woody scents, and a subtle vegetal hint. As it evolves, delicate spiciness and sweet undertones emerge.
• Palate: The attack is generous and complex, offering a remarkable balance of power, suppleness, and sweetness. Fruity flavours blend with spicy, soft notes, and the sweetness harmonises perfectly without overwhelming the wine’s natural elegance. The aftertaste lingers with hints of blond caramel and a fresh, long finish.

Food Pairings:
The richness and sweetness of Pol Roger Rich Demi-Sec make it ideal for pairing with desserts and sweet-savoury dishes. Try it with fruit-based desserts, pastries, or even foie gras for a delightful tasting experience. The balance of sweetness and complexity makes it a versatile champagne that complements a variety of flavour profiles.
