Ferghettina Franciacorta Brut NV

Jorge Castillo — Blown away honestly

9/10

I'm not a massive wine person but my partner is, and he went on about how good this was for ages. Even I could tell it was special — the bubbles are tiny and persistent and it just keeps giving you flavour. Best sparkling wine I've had outside of actual champagne.

Andre Dubois — Great with food

7/10

Saw Franciacorta on a restaurant menu last year and been curious ever since. This one is really nice — proper structure to it, not just a light fizzy thing. Had it with some pasta and it held up brilliantly. The acidity cuts through richer dishes no problem.

Adaobi Eze — Nice but a bit pricey for what it is

6/10

It's a decent sparkling wine, don't get me wrong, but nearly £30 feels steep when you can get a good cava for half that. The bubbles are lovely and fine, and it's got a clean finish. Just not sure I'd reach for it regularly at this price.
