The Making of Sir Winston Churchill 1999 Vinothèque Pol Roger
Composed of a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the Sir Winston Churchill 1999 Vinothèque is made exclusively from grapes sourced from Grand Cru terroirs. It is an assemblage designed to produce a robust and full-bodied champagne, just as Sir Winston Churchill appreciated.
The 1999 vintage was marked by favorable climatic conditions, with harvests carried out under generous sunshine. The perfectly ripe grapes allowed for the production of a vintage that is both powerful and elegant. Vinification, carried out 70% in wood, gives this champagne a unique depth and complexity. Prolonged aging in the deep cellars of Épernay, under optimal conditions of darkness and coolness, has enhanced this vintage. The dosage has been adjusted to offer a perfect balance between freshness and maturity.
