Champagne Vadin-Plateau Origines NV

Ravi Krishnan — Went perfectly with our seafood starter

8/10

We had this with oysters and prawns and it was spot on. Clean, precise, with enough substance that it doesn't just vanish the moment you swallow. Vadin-Plateau clearly know what they're doing. Would happily buy again for a nice meal at home.

Marcus Chen — Good but a stretch at this price

7/10

Nice champagne, genuinely enjoyable, but I'm not sure it's £50 good. The acidity is really clean and it's got more going on than most NVs I've tried. Would probably buy again if it was on offer.

Petra Novak — This is what champagne should taste like

9/10

Had this at a restaurant and immediately looked it up to buy a bottle for home. Properly structured with beautiful fruit and a mousse that's incredibly fine. I'm not a wine expert by any means but even I could tell this was a cut above.
