Mumm Cordon Rouge Champagne

Tyler Bennet — Proper champagne taste

8/10

The guy at my local wine shop recommended this and he wasn't wrong. You get that lovely brioche-y smell when you pour it, and it's got a really clean citrusy finish that keeps you going back for more. Great with some cheese and crackers on a Friday night.

Simon Hughes — Bit pricey but decent

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and decided to try a bottle from the shop instead. It's refreshing with a nice mineral edge and some green apple notes. Tastes good but I'm not 100% convinced it's worth the premium over something like a crémant. Would happily drink it again if someone else was buying though!

Priya Sharma — My go-to celebration fizz

9/10

Bought this for my partner's birthday and we both loved it. Really nice toasty, biscuity thing going on with fresh apple flavours — genuinely impressive for a non-vintage champagne. At around £36 it's not cheap but it feels worth it for special occasions.
