Champagne Pommery Brut Royale
Reims, France

Grapes are sourced from 40 selected villages in the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims and other areas in the Champagne region where the liveliness and delicacy of the chardonnay grape is enhanced by the climate.

On the nose; Lively, cheerful, fresh, light-hearted, fine, delicate and generous.

On the palate; Elegant, lively with some assertive notes of red fruits and rounded. Feels rich, delicate that lingers without overpowering. In short, a clean taste with no dryness. A very smooth wine which never wanes on the palate.

This is the essence of the Pommery style, liveliness, fresh, finesse and legacy as Madame Pommery created the Pommery Nature in 1874, the first brut champagne to meet with commercial success, thereby breaking with the tradition of very sweet wine.
Cheers to legacy and finesse! — 13 days ago

60% Touriga Nacional
20% Touriga Franca
20% Tinta Roriz

Dark purple color, with a lot of earthy components. Floral notes with a wooden accents, vanilla, and dark ripened fruit. All with a bit of leather. Nicely balanced with just a medium tannin structure. A lot softer than the flavors and scents give off. I think it’s delicious, and the 2018 is drinking quite primely right now. — 4 months ago
