There is that moment when the spirit of Pol Roger is revealed. One may think one knows champagne and yet, that day, one truly discovers it.
Distinction & Elegance
Pol Roger is the gentlemen's Champagne, as Jean-Paul Kauffman wrote in "Voyage en Champagne".
Pol Rogers lived in Aÿ, a village famous for its vineyards, lying at the foot of the Montagne de Reims. He was only 18 when, on 2nd January 1849, he made his first sale of wine. For five generations, the descendants have been equally demanding, remaining loyal to the strategy initiated from the very beginning by the firm's founder.
In its 170 years of history, Pol Roger has carved out one of the most flattering reputations in the select circle of the leading Champagne brands.
Excellence & Independence
In its 170 years of history, Pol Roger has carved out one of the most flattering reputations in the select circle of the leading Champagne brands.
This recognition is the fruit of the firm's unwavering dedication to two essential values: excellence and independence. Each of the wines which bears our name is treated as an impeccable ambassador of our history. For six generations, the descendants have been equally demanding, remaining loyal to the strategy initiated from the very beginning by the firm's founder.
Excellence means the rigorous selection of the vinegrowers the firm works with, but also by strict selection of the grapes bought from them. Family members keep a close eye on all the operations, including details of the production.
The purity and nobility of Pol Roger Champagne is also the fruit of the know-how, passed down from generation to generation. From the harvest in the region's best vineyards, to the painstaking work in the cellar, each gesture has its importance.
Refinement & Pleasure
It is not surprising, therefore, that Winston Churchill and even the British Royal Family should have made it their favourite over the years.
This refinement reflects a whole lifestyle. It is also a source of infinite pleasure. Pol Roger Champagne has a soul, created by the union of a family's spirit and the character of a vineyard. The winery and the cellars are located on the celebrated and noble Avenue de Champagne in Epernay, in the very place where the heart of Champagne beats.

"My tastes are simple, I am easily satisfied with the best". - Sir Winston Churchill
Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill
Champagne Pol Roger created their Prestige Cuvée in homage to Sir Winston Churchill mindful of the qualities that he sought in his champagne : robustness, a full-bodied character and relative maturity.
The exact blend is a closely guarded family secret but it is undeniable that the composition would meet with the approval of the man to whom it is dedicated : "My tastes are simple, I am easily satisfied with the best". Pinot Noir predominates, providing structure, breadth and robustness whilst Chardonnay contributes elegance, finesse and subtlety.
Composed exclusively of grapes sourced from Grands Crus Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards which were already under vine during Churchill's lifetime. Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill is only made in the very best vintages and is always released later than the other vintage dated Champagnes from Pol Roger, marking Churchill's appreciation for older wines.
