'The best Pol Vintage I've tasted since the magnificent 1982'

Our final allocation at release price

'No reservations or caveats here. This is the best Pol Vintage I've tasted since the magnificent 1982. A wine as great as this is difficult to describe adequately. No single, especially marked characteristic, just every element - fruit, extract, acidity, texture, vinosity - together making a complete whole. The harvest was ideal, warm throughout but not too hot. Still a very youthful Champagne with 20 years of life ahead, and so much in reserve, thanks to the inspired non-oxidative winemaking. Exquisite. 19.5 out of 20 points.' - Michael Edwards, World of Fine Wine, issue 36 2012

Recent tastings confirm the quality of this superb Champagne and, while starting to open up, its true qualities will only start to show properly with time in the cellar. Anyone who has spoken to us in the shop will know that for quality and value it has achieved the status of being our default vintage Champagne. Now that Pol Roger have sold out, our final batch of this ageworthy wine will be disappearing fast, so avoid disappointment and order now.
The 2002 has been a wonderful wine to have around. It's an ambassador for the whole Champagne brand because it shows the heights the region can achieve. /CW
