Rich and profound, big yet focused. A bit shy on the nose at present, but will certainly plump with time. Great energy. A great vintage Champagne, winning the QPR award for the region. (CC 06/03/2012)

No reservations or caveats here. This is the best Pol Vintage I`ve tasted since the magnificent 1982. A wine as great as this is difficult to describe adequately. No single, especially marked characteristic, just every element - fruit, extract, acidity, texture, vinosity - together making a complete whole. The harvest was ideal, warm throughout but not too hot. Still a very youthful Champagne with 20 years of life ahead, and so much in reserve, thanks to the inspired non-oxidative winemaking. Exquisite. 19.5/20 points
