Benoit Lahaye Brut Nature / Grand Cru NV Champagne

Ingrid Holm — Good but needs the right moment

7/10

Had this at a friend's dinner party and thought it was solid but maybe not an everyday buy at that price point. The finish is lovely and clean, and there's a minerally thing going on that I liked. Just not sure I'd pick it over a decent £40 bottle for casual drinking.

Rafael Santos — Birthday treat that delivered

9/10

Bought this for my 40th and wow, it really lived up to the hype. Bone dry with this amazing crispness that just kept me going back for more. Not cheap at £70 but for a Grand Cru champagne on a special occasion? Worth every penny.

Zoe Chen — Saw this on a restaurant menu

8/10

Tried it at a restaurant first then tracked down a bottle to have at home. It's the kind of champagne that builds on you — first sip is nice, by the third glass you're properly impressed. Great with seafood starters. The dry style really works here.
