Lelarge-Pugeot 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs NV Champagne / Extra Brut

Amira Benali — Nice but maybe a touch expensive

7/10

Look, it's a solid champagne. Clean fruit, good balance, decent finish. But at nearly sixty quid I kept thinking I could get two pretty good bottles of something else instead. If it was £45 I'd rate it higher. That said I did enjoy drinking it, so take from that what you will.

Elena Vasquez — Good not great

7/10

Picked this up from an online retailer on a whim. It's well made and the finish is clean — no complaints there. Just didn't blow me away the way I hoped for a premier cru champagne. The acidity is quite forward which I know some people love but it's not really my thing. Would still happily drink it again though.

Oscar Delgado — Proper champagne, no fuss

8/10

Had this at a friend's dinner party and immediately asked what it was. There's a nice acidity to it that keeps you going back for more without it being harsh. Good depth for a non-vintage — I've had pricier champagnes that were less interesting.
