Henriot Brut Rose Champagne

Dmitri Volkov — Genuinely impressed

9/10

I've been slowly trying different rosé Champagnes this year and this is one of the better ones I've had. The acidity gives it real backbone and it doesn't just disappear after you swallow like some cheaper ones do. Kept reaching for my glass all evening. Henriot clearly know what they're doing.

Freya Lindqvist — Good but bit pricey

7/10

Had this at a friend's dinner party and it was nice enough. Clean, well-balanced, decent length on the finish. But for nearly £50 I'd probably look at a few other options before reaching for this one again. Not bad by any means, just not sure it justifies the price for me.

Zara Al-Hassan — Goes down dangerously easy

8/10

Picked this up for a girls' night and we demolished two bottles. It's really expressive on the nose — you can smell it as soon as you pour — and the taste backs it up. Good complexity without being one of those Champagnes you need a degree to appreciate. Would definitely get it again for a gathering.
