"The Pol Roger 2018 Rosé is seductive and striking, with a burst of raspberries, blackcurrant, mandarins, blood orange and streaks of mango. The nose is magnificent, with aromas of deep pink and red climbing roses, honeysuckle and pink jasmine. It has a fine-boned texture with a chalky saline layer over the fruit – giving sophisticated structure and complexity. It has a fine persistent effervescence with a lovely integrated mousse. There is a crisp fullness, indicating a long life ahead - such is this miracle year of 2018." - Bernadette O'Shea, Champagne Consultant, The Wine Emporium
"The 2018 Brut Rosé opens to a superb bouquet revealing scents of plums, red berries, pastry, almond, mandarin orange and lemon oil complemented by classy autolytic notes. On the palate, this remarkable rosé has a tauter and more fine-boned texture than usual, which is enhanced by bright acids and a chalky, saline finish. It requires patience to realize all its potential." - 94 Points, Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate
