#340 Royal Wedding Champagne

It had to be done, a tasting note of the Champagne being served at the Royal Wedding today.  The Royal couple will be toasting their future with Pol Roger Reserve, and whilst watching the wedding on television, I tried this non vintage fizz.

Pol Roger Reserve Non Vintage
Lovely honey coated biscuits on the nose, a little lemon and some gentle sweet floral aromas.  There is some lemon pith, a bit of subtle grapefruit pip flavour.  Some mineral notes come through, some pepper on the end and a long finish with some biscuit, lemon curd sweetness and some diluted lemon juice.  Always a stunning non vintage champagne.  8/10

I'd like to wish the couple all the happiness for their future life together.

Why not raise a glass to the royal couple with the same delightful Champagne! William and Kate, along with their wedding guests, are toasting with the NV Pol Roger Extra Cuvee De Reserve Brut ($44) http://www.winecellarage.com/catalog/product/view/id/2818/s/nv-pol-roger-extra-cuvee-de-reserve-brut/
