To this day, the House of Pol Roger remains family run and owned – something which few top Champagne houses can honestly say in this age of increasing demand and commerce. The House owns just under 90 hectares of premium land in Epernay, as well as a sizeable plot in the Côte des Blancs region. It should come as little surprise to the Champagne lover, then, that its cellars cover a vast area. Little do many unsuspecting people know it, but beneath the streets of this famous Champagne institute lie some of the deepest and most suitable cellars anywhere around.

It is the cellars' location, of course, which makes for such wonderful attributes – the kind that all Champagne must have to be marked as the best: bubbles laced with flair and persistence are just one of these qualities, in a Champagne which sells as many as 15 million bottles each and every single year.
