Pol Roger Extra Dry 1988


Wonderfully nutty and mature nose. Rich mushroom note. Roasted red pepper. Delicate mousse and lime zest acidic grip on the end palate. Once you throw it around a bit in the palate it loses the mature oxidative note and gleams ’88 glory! Demands food. Nice thick bit of foie gras and brioche. Really dark mid-late palate. Burnt toast with blackcurrant and overripe blackberries.
