Pommery Brut Royal is the essence of the Pommery style: liveliness, fresh, finesse. 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.
It's an equal blend of all 3 major varieties. The dosage sits at 10 g/l residual sugar. As with all Pommery wine making, full malo-lactic fermentation is encouraged as is the use of stainless steel. With a medium-straw hue and flavours of red apple, bruised pear and grapefruit, this is a cuvée of firm phenolic bite and redcurrant and lemon-accented acidity, with the toasty meringue notes of lees age contrasting the candied, honeyed effect of dosage.
