Worth every penny for a special night
Bought this for our anniversary and wow. The bubbles are so fine and delicate, and there's this gorgeous strawberry and brioche thing going on that just kept evolving in the glass. At £190 it's not an everyday buy obviously, but for a proper occasion it's hard to beat. My wife said it was the best champagne she's ever had and I'm not going to argue.

Beautiful but hard to justify the price
The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something special for Christmas. It's lovely, really clean and precise with nice red fruit notes, and the presentation in the gift box is gorgeous. But £190 is a lot of champagne money and I'm not sure it's twice as good as a £90 bottle. Still, very glad I tried it.

Best rosé champagne I've tried
Had this at a friend's wedding and immediately went and tracked down a bottle with the gift box for my dad's 60th. It's so balanced and elegant without being boring — there's real depth to it but it's still easy to enjoy. The finish just lingers perfectly. Yes it's expensive but it genuinely delivers.

Stunner of a champagne
Picked this up at a tasting event where they were pouring it alongside some big name vintage champagnes and honestly it held its own easily. There's a quiet sophistication to it — not showy at all, just really well made. The pale salmon colour is beautiful too. Would absolutely buy again for a celebration.
