Moet & Chandon Brut Imperial Champagne

Felix Moreau — Solid champagne, does what it says on the tin

8/10

Had this at a restaurant and liked it enough to grab a bottle from Waitrose. It's well balanced — not too sweet, not too dry, with decent bubbles and a clean finish. There's a slight almondy thing at the end that I really enjoy. Good all-rounder if you want proper champagne without going crazy on price.

Oscar Delgado — Our go-to celebration bottle

9/10

We crack open a bottle of this every anniversary and it never disappoints. Really lovely apple and citrus thing going on, with that toasty bread smell when you first pour it. At fifty quid it's not cheap but it's Moet innit, you know what you're getting.

Sophia Laurent — Decent but I expected more

7/10

Saw this on a menu and thought I'd treat myself. It's fine, there's some nice citrus and a toasty quality that makes it feel a bit special. But for £50 I kind of wanted to be blown away and I wasn't. The finish is pleasant enough with a bit of lemon zest but it doesn't linger as long as I'd like. I'm no expert though so take that with a pinch of salt.
