Champagne Pol Roger

Distinction and elegance. Established in 1849, Pol Roger is the ‘gentlemen’s’ Champagne, as Jean Paul Kauffman wrote in ‘Voyage en Champagne’. It is not surprising therefore the British Royal family should have made it their favourite over the years. This refinement reflects a whole lifestyle; it is also a source of infinite pleasure.
