Interesting change from bubbles
My wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something different. It's a still wine made in Champagne which I didn't even know was a thing. Really well balanced — fruity but with a nice acidity that keeps it fresh. Would definitely buy again for a nice dinner at home.

Good but pricey
Look, this is a solid wine. Nice fruit, clean finish, clearly well made. But £69 for a still red? I've had Burgundy at that price that excited me more. If you're curious about Coteaux Champenois it's a good example, just manage your expectations on value.

Obsessed with this
Saw this on a restaurant menu and ordered it on a whim. The mineral quality is genuinely striking and it's got this lovely persistence that just hangs around after each sip. Tracked a bottle down online the next week. One of my favourite discoveries this year.

Birthday treat that delivered
Got this for my 40th and wow, it did not disappoint. Still wine from Champagne is something I'd never tried before and the depth of flavour blew me away. Really complex, lots going on with every sip. At nearly seventy quid it's not an everyday thing but for a special occasion it's brilliant.
