About this Item

Pol Roger
Sir Winston Churchill 2000
2 (1 x 2) 1500ml
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.

Critics Ratings

'Subdued nose, savoury and toasty. Underpowered by comparison with the other vintages (which is so unfair, since this is still a superb wine). Caramelised and complex but there is definitely a relative lightness of touch.' - Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Nov 2022)

'This 2000, at 14 years old, has developed a pale gold color and toastiness. That intensifies the mature flavors and rich texture, while allowing the tight mousse and acidity to keep a sense of structure. It will age much further, although it is perfectly ready to drink now.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 96/100 (Dec 2014)
