This was recently featured in The Independent as one of "20 best champagnes", and it is a lovely champagne for which the House has found a perfect balance between the freshness of the Chardonnay, structure of the Pinot Noir and roundness of the Pinot Meunier. "A Champagne to pop open for a weekend brunch, this is refreshing and lively with a chiselled limestone structure and grapefruit acidity. Made from almost equal parts chardonnay, pinot meunier and pinot noir, the flavours are well-balanced, while the use of 40 per cent reserve wines and 42 months on the lees gives a nice rounded complexity. It’s great quality and with change from £30, you certainly won’t feel like a muggins." "20 best champagnes" Nuria Stylianou, The Independent "The Pol Couronne is a pretty pale gold colour with fine bubbles. An expressive nose that opens with notes of almonds, citrus, hay and field flowers, notes of dried fruit. The mouth is well balanced, lively and delicate. A nice dynamism revealed by notes of grapefruit. The dosage allows the wine to express itself fully on acidulated, limestone notes, all with a beautiful length." Pol Couronne Enjoy on its own, or with prawn ravioli, risotto with green asparagus and mushrooms.
