Louis Roederer Cristal 2013 Rosé Champagne

Priya Sharma — Opened it for New Year's and wow

9/10

We saved this for midnight on NYE and it was genuinely special. There's a nuttiness to it, almost like toasted hazelnuts, mixed with strawberry and something minerally I can't quite place. Everyone at the table went quiet for a second after the first sip which tells you everything.

Luna Chavez — Finally tried it at a restaurant

9/10

Saw this on the wine list at a place in Mayfair and thought sod it, you only live once. The blood orange note really comes through and there's this chalky mineral thing underneath that keeps you going back for another sip. Absolutely stunning champagne, though I'd never be able to justify buying a whole bottle for home.

Clara Johansson — The best thing I've ever drunk

10/10

The wine shop guy talked me into this for a big family celebration and I'm so glad he did. Rose petal, strawberry, this amazing brioche warmth — and then a clean chalky finish that just keeps going. I'm not a champagne expert by any means but even I could tell this was on another level.
