As usual the vintage is a 60/40 blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, but, unsurprisingly in such a superb Pinot year as 2012, the dark fruits are in the ascendant, evidenced initially by the burnished gold colour, then by a nose which is rich and gently savoury and finally by a resplendent palate which rehearses encyclopaedic appraisal of all the virtues of this great region, in a year when the climate has elicited dramatic tension to propel the bubbles. Plum, stone fruit, kumquat, gingerbread and toffee apple challenge and inspire in turn; the finish, as usual with Pol, has a saline purity to leaven the indulgence that has gone before it and to ensure a soft, satisfying landing.
