Pommery Brut Royal NV Methuselah (6Ltr)

In the mouth elegant and lively. Small assertive notes of red fruits. A rounded, rich, delicate wine that lingers in the mouth. In short, a clean taste with no dryness. A very smooth wine which never wanes on the palate.

Grape Variety:

The style at Pommery is light and delicate. The non-vintage Brut Royal is 35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier.

Background Information:

With a blend that emphasises the Chardonnay grape, Brut Royal NV is made lively by the flavours of fleshy fruit and little berries. Originating from 40 selected villages in the Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims and other areas in the Champagne region, the liveliness and delicacy of the Chardonnay grape is enhanced by the climate. Its freshness shows hints of citrus and white flowers and is made possible by cool primary fermentation, which prevents the naturally volatile subtle flavours from escaping

Madame Pommery created the first successfully marketed Brut Champagne 'Pommery Nature 1874' at a time when most Champagnes were excessively sweetened by sugar. This set the benchmark for the rest of Champagne and it is in this spirit that the style of Pommery endures; with each unique cuvée displaying elegance, finesse and true class. Today, all of the wines are expertly crafted by Chef de Cave, Thierry Gasco - the 9th Cellar Master at Pommery.

Pommery boasts some of the finest cellars in Reims, with over 18 kilometres of galleries hollowed out of chalk. Residing some 30 metres under the ground, these keep the maturing wine at a steady 10°c throughout the year. Pommery has continually been a generous patron of the arts and upholds this responsibility today, using the building as a venue to exhibit exciting contemporary art.
