Laculle Freres Les Deux Vallees NV Champagne

Priscilla Nunes — Genuinely surprised me

9/10

I'm not usually a Champagne person — I find a lot of them a bit samey. But this Laculle Freres has real character to it. There's a proper layered quality where you keep noticing new things. The finish is really smooth too, no harsh edges at all.

Jorge Castillo — Decent enough fizz

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant wine list and ordered a glass. It's nice — good fruit, good acidity, does the job. I probably wouldn't seek it out specifically at full retail price but I wouldn't turn it down either. Fine for celebrations.

Jackson Wu — Birthday treat that delivered

9/10

Bought this for my wife's 40th and we were both really impressed. Proper crisp and fresh with loads going on — every sip seemed to taste a bit different as it opened up. At £53 it's not cheap but for a birthday Champagne it felt worth every penny.
