Veuve Clicquot Rich Doux Champagne

Farah Abboud — Perfect for mixing cocktails on a sunny afternoon

9/10

Bought this for a garden party and it was a massive hit. We mixed it with fresh fruit and ice like the label suggests and honestly it was incredible — sweet but not sickly, with a real fizz to it. At sixty quid it's not cheap but everyone was asking what it was, so worth it for the wow factor.

Dmitri Volkov — Decent, not sure about the price tag though

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and thought I'd try the Veuve Clicquot Rich since I've had the regular yellow label loads of times. It's well made and smooth with a satisfying finish, but at this price point I expected to be completely blown away and I wasn't quite. Still solid champagne though.

Kofi Asante — Nice but bit pricey for what it is

7/10

Had this at a friend's house and it's good, don't get me wrong. Lovely nose, clean finish, all that. But over £60 for a sweet champagne feels steep when you can get a solid Prosecco for a third of the price. Would I buy it again? Maybe for a special occasion.
