Pol Roger to hold agency tasting

The Pol Roger Portfolio is to hold its first agency tasting in a decade this April to showcase the much expanded range of wines it now offers.

The tasting will take place on 3 April at Sessions House in London, with many of the winemakers and owners of the various agencies in attendance.

Founded in 1990 to represent Pol Roger Champagne in the UK, the Pol Roger Portfolio now also represents Bodegas Artadi, Joseph Drouhin, Domaine Josmeyer, Robert Sinskey Vineyards, Staglin Family Vineyard, Abreu, Dalla Valle Vineyards, Gallica and Crown Estates as well as Glenfarclas Highland Single Malt.

Each agency will be showing new vintages and some older stock as well. Pol Champagne Roger will launch its 2012 vintage at the tasting and Crown Estates will mark its relaunch as ‘Grand Tokaj’ with a tasting of five decades of Aszú wines. A new rosé wine in a can, ‘Igo’, will also be launched at the tasting.

James Simpson MW, managing director of Pol Roger Portfolio, said: “We believe 2019 is poised to be our best year yet; in celebration of this, we are holding our first agency-wide tasting in over a decade.

“On 3 April, at London’s Sessions House, we look forward to welcoming our agency Principals from across the world, who will be pouring their fine wines and spirits to our loyal customer base.”
