Gallimard Les Riceys Cuvee Reserve Champagne

Daisy Miller — Really impressed for the price

8/10

Picked this up for a dinner party and it went down an absolute treat. Lovely bready, biscuity thing going on with really fine bubbles. At around £34 it's genuinely good Champagne without the ridiculous markup. Will definitely be buying again.

Henrik Larsen — Good with food

7/10

Had this with a roast chicken dinner and it was a great match. Clean and crisp with enough body to stand up to actual food rather than just being an aperitif. The finish hangs around in a nice way. I'd grab another bottle for sure.

Kai Oliveira — Hidden gem from Les Riceys

9/10

Tried this at a tasting event and immediately bought three bottles. Gallimard clearly know what they're doing — the mousse is so fine and the fruit is ripe but not overdone. Genuinely complex stuff for under £35. If you're into grower Champagne this is a no-brainer.
