Sir Winston Churchill was Pol Roger’s most illustrious devotee and customer. Churchill’s relationship with Pol Roger dates back to 1944, although he had been a loyal customer as far back as 1908. At a luncheon given by the British ambassador to France after the liberation of Paris, Churchill met the charming and captivating Odette Pol-Roger and so began a friendship which lasted until Sir Winston’s death in 1965. Pol Roger was not just any champagne to Churchill, it was a drink that embodied the style and spirit with which he lived by: robust, mature and long-lived.

2024 marks 150 years since Churchill’s birth and 175 Years of Champagne Pol Roger. To celebrate this historic year, we would like you to design a sustainable solution for the Pol Roger Brut Vintage gift packaging that embodies this remarkable friendship.
