Pommery Brut Royal NV Champagne: Elegance Worth Celebrating

Nia Okafor — Bit pricey for what it is

6/10

The wine shop guy recommended this and it's fine, but I've had Proseccos at half the price that I enjoyed just as much. The strawberry notes are nice and it's smooth enough, but nearly £44 feels steep when you're just having a glass on a Friday night.

Kenji Watanabe — Good everyday Champagne

7/10

Well, everyday if you can afford it! Nice mix of the three classic Champagne grapes and you can taste the quality. There's a chalky dryness that stops it being too sweet which I appreciated. Good for when you want something a step up from your usual fizz.

Maxwell Green — Solid Champagne, nothing flashy

7/10

Had this at a friend's dinner party and thought it was decent. Nice balance of fruit and a bit of toasty bread flavour. Does the job well but didn't blow me away — I'd probably reach for it again if it was on offer though.
