Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The taut acidity of the 2015 vintage — sun-drenched yet tempered by cool nights — keeps the whole wine vibrant and mineral.
Roundness
The dominant Pinot Noir brings a fleshy generosity and palatal amplitude that evokes pure silk.
Power
Vinous, structured, of majestic depth — precisely what Churchill demanded of a great champagne.
Length on the palate
Exceptional aromatic persistence, marked by ripe candied fruits, gentle spice and roasted hazelnut.

TASTING NOTES

A deep golden robe with amber highlights, crowned by a fine and persistent mousse of great elegance. The nose opens on a generous, complex bouquet: candied citrus, orange blossom, buttery brioche and toasted hazelnut, with a vinous maturity reminiscent of the finest Blancs de Noirs. The palate reveals a majestic fullness carried by a tight, silky structure, drawing out to an almost interminable finish with notes of acacia honey, cocoa and gentle spice.

Terroirs

A blend of Grands Crus from the finest terroirs of the Montagne de Reims for the Pinot Noir — which forms the backbone of the cuvée — complemented by carefully selected Chardonnays from the Côte des Blancs for finesse and vertical lift. Vinified in stainless steel, full malolactic fermentation, disgorged September 2022.

Pol Roger

About this house

Founded in 1849 by Pol Roger in Épernay, the Maison Pol Roger embodies a particular vision of Champenois rigour: 92 hectares of estate vineyards, cellars among the deepest in the region (18 km of tunnels at 33 metres below ground), systematic malolactic fermentation and an extended ageing on lees that lends each cuvée its signature freshness and precision.

The friendship between Winston Churchill and Maison Pol Roger has become the stuff of legend: from 1945, the British Prime Minister made this champagne his drink of choice, ordering several cases each year. In his honour, the cuvée Sir Winston Churchill was created with the 1975 vintage — it is produced only in exceptional years, and its precise blend remains a secret jealously guarded by the Pol-Roger family.

Food pairing

The perfect pairing

Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif

Aperitif

The fine bubble and aromatic depth of the Sir Winston Churchill pair superbly with comté gougères, whose cheesy richness calls for the roundness of the Pinot Noir.

The vinous power and complexity of this prestige cuvée find their ideal match in the satiny richness and nobility of foie gras.

Main course

Main course

The breadth and deep earthy notes of the Sir Winston Churchill come into their own alongside truffle-roasted poultry — a meeting of two expressions of luxury.
