Saw this on a restaurant menu and thought sod it. Went down brilliantly with our seafood starters — there's a salty mineral thing at the end that works really well with food. The peach notes are subtle and nice. Great champagne, just wish it didn't cost a mortgage payment.

5/10

Had a glass at a friend's party. It's good champagne, don't get me wrong — the apple and lemon curd flavours are clean and refreshing. But I've had £40 bottles of fizz that made me just as happy. You're paying for the gold bottle and the name.

7/10

Got this as a birthday present and honestly the bottle alone is stunning. The champagne itself is really nice — lovely green apple and a sort of bready thing going on. Is it nearly a grand better than a decent Veuve? Probably not, but it made me feel fancy.

4/10

Someone brought this to a dinner party and we were all excited to try it. It's perfectly pleasant — crisp green apple, decent bubbles, fine finish. But I genuinely preferred the £30 Crémant we had afterwards. At 12.5% it's not even particularly strong. Save your money.

5/10

Ordered this at a club in Ibiza so obviously paid even more than retail. It's fine — crisp, appley, nice bubbles. But for £945 I expected my life to change and it just tasted like... good champagne. The toasty nutty finish was probably the best bit.

6/10

Bought this for our 10th anniversary because you only live once. Really enjoyed the peachy nose and the lemon curd flavour running through it. My wife loved it. Would I buy it again at this price? No chance, but as a one-off experience it was memorable.

7/10

I'm not gonna lie, I assumed this was all hype and Jay-Z marketing. But it's actually a proper champagne — the mousse is incredibly fine and there's this chalky dryness that keeps you sipping. The hazelnut on the finish caught me off guard in a good way. Still mad expensive though.
