Paul Dethune Grand Cru NV Champagne

Marcus Blackwell — New favourite champagne

9/10

I don't know loads about champagne but I know what I like, and I really like this. It's dry and fresh with a clean finish that makes you want another glass immediately. Brought it to a friend's house for New Year's and everyone loved it.

Idris Ibrahim — Great for a dinner party

8/10

Served this at a dinner party and got loads of compliments. It smells amazing straight out of the bottle — really ripe fruity aromas that hit you immediately. Held up well through starters and mains. Would definitely buy again.

Luciano Bianchi — Punches above its weight

8/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and looked it up afterwards to buy a few bottles. For a Grand Cru NV it's surprisingly complex — layers of flavour that keep unfolding as you drink. Not flashy, just really well made. Became my go-to for when I want something a step up from supermarket champagne.
