Champagne Coessens Largillier Les Sens Boises 2017
Champagne 12.5% ABV ABV CoessensSpecial occasion champagne
Bought this for our anniversary dinner and it was absolutely worth it. Really well balanced, not too sweet, not too dry, with proper depth to it. You can tell someone knew what they were doing when they made this. Would definitely buy again for a special occasion.
Lovely but pricey
The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something a bit different from the usual Moët. It's genuinely good — clean finish and interesting complexity that keeps you coming back for another sip. At £86 though, it's firmly in the treat yourself category rather than a regular buy.
Really solid smaller producer
I've been trying to branch out from the big champagne houses and this Coessens was a great find. Expressive nose, good structure, and it unfolds nicely as you drink it rather than hitting you all at once. Bit steep at nearly £90 but you're paying for quality not a label, which I respect.
Best champagne I've had in ages
Had this at a friend's dinner party and immediately asked where she got it. The balance between the fruit and acidity is spot on, and it's got this lovely persistence after you swallow. Not heavy at all despite how flavourful it is. Already ordered two bottles for myself.
Birthday treat that delivered
Got this as a birthday present to myself because life's too short for bad fizz. So glad I did. It's got real character — confident and well-made without being showy. Had it with some cheese and crackers and honestly just sat there smiling. The finish is clean and keeps you wanting more.
