The 2018 Pol Roger Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill is the house’s flagship prestige Champagne, produced only in exceptional vintages as a tribute to Sir Winston Churchill’s preference for rich, structured wines. Crafted predominantly from Pinot Noir with Chardonnay sourced from Grand Cru vineyards, it reflects a style of power, depth and refinement, with the exact blend kept a closely guarded secret. The nose is complex and expressive, revealing pear, peach and candied citrus layered with dried fruit, spice, hazelnut and brioche.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and vinous, with a broad, textured structure supported by vibrant acidity and fine, persistent bubbles. The finish is long, rich and elegant, combining concentration with precision and finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a collector-level Champagne and one of the finest prestige cuvées available. It offers both immediate depth and outstanding aging potential. Best from 2028 onwards, with the ability to age for 20+ years. Ideal for luxury gifting, celebrations or pairing with lobster, truffle dishes and fine dining.
