It reflects the qualities Churchill appreciated in Pol Roger: a robust structure, an assertive maturity, and a vinosity that allows the wine to age gracefully for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Vintage of Fullness and Generosity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe year 1999 yielded grapes of great maturity, producing full-bodied and fleshy wines. After more than two decades of resting, this Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill has achieved a masterful balance. It combines the residual freshness of Grand Cru Chardonnays with the dominant power of Pinot Noirs, whose exact blend remains one of Champagne's best-kept secrets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSensory Profile: Complexity and Depth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e A deep, brilliant gold, with an effervescence that has become extremely fine and creamy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e An aristocratic bouquet opening with notes of candied fruit, acacia honey, and toasted hazelnuts, evolving towards hints of undergrowth and warm pastries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The attack is vinous and imposing.

Churchill himself would not have conceived of drinking this wine without a meal worthy of its name. We recommend serving it with capon with morels, an aged Comté cheese, or turbot in cream sauce. It is a tasting experience that commands respect, a true \"wolf\" that has traded its cashmere for a bespoke tweed suit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pol Roger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53343379194195,"sku":"PRSWC1999CC","price":250.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0818\/9686\/6131\/files\/Champagne_Pol_Roger_Cuvee_Sir_Winston_Churchill_1999_Brut_-_Giftbox_6.jpg?v=1774538753","url":"https:\/\/www.wineuponatime.com\/en\/products\/sir-winston-churchill-1999-champagne-pol-roger-coffret","provider":"Wine Upon A Time","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
