  "A very elegant and silky vintage Champagne with a seamless harmony of candied citrus fruit, sushi ginger and dried cherry character with racy acidity and delicate minerality at the long, straight and refined finish. You don’t even think about how much or little dosage this has. Drink or hold."

  "Based on 60% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, the 2016 Champagne Vintage Brut is released only after 6-7 years on the lees (sur latte). It pours a straw hue and displays a more expressive profile on opening, with notes of tangerine and fresh flowers, its red fruit coming through with fresh red raspberry and peppery spice. It’s medium-bodied and rounded through the palate, with excellent structure, powerful concentration, and a long finish. This has a refined yet powerful feel and will be a wine with significant longevity and slow maturation over the next 15-20 years. True to the house style, it has a sturdy backbone and is emblematic of a fantastic vintage champagne from Pol Roger. The mousse is pinpoint and rounded on the finish. Drink 2024-2040."

  "From a fine vintage for Champagne, particularly the Pinot Noir favored by this producer, this wine is still young, while suggesting great maturity and further aging to come. It is a great, balanced wine, with an edge of minerality. Drink now, but also age for many years."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2016 Brut Vintage reveals a complex, gourmand bouquet with aromas of ripe orchard fruits, nectarine, pastry, nuts, sweet spices and ripe white fruits, signs of a warm vintage. Full-bodied, broad and vinous with a fleshy core of fruit, it’s rich and elegant with a penetrating, saline finish. It will drink at its peak in five to 10 years."

  "Helles Goldgelb, Silberreflexe, feines, anhaltendes Mousseux. Frische gelbe Pflaumenfrucht, etwas Mango und Blütenhonig, zart nach Biskuit und Nougat, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, elegant, dezente Fruchtsüße, feiner Säurebogen, zart nach Marille, mineralisch und gut anhaftend, ein harmonischer Speisenbegleiter, gutes Reifepotenzial."

  Wine Spectator
  " Creamy and lightly mouthwatering, with an easy grace and harmony to the flavors of crème de cassis, lemon sorbet, brioche and minerally oyster shell, revealing smoke accents. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2030."

  "Toasty, smoky aroma with baked apple and lemon zest, creamy texture, umami mushroom flavour on the length. Classically styled, as typical and traditional as ever. Much richer and bolder than their non-vintage, and absolutely ready to drink now. It could age, but I'm not sure you need it to."
