Not for me

I bought this to try as it was on half price offer, unfortunately we didnt like it at all, it was too sweet (the taste reminded me of very overripe fruit) and it gave me a headache - I never get a headache with Pommery or Moet. Afraid I shant purchase again.

No good

Splash out for the vintage when on offer which is what a regular NV regular basic champagne should taste like. This isn't even worth it at half price. It is harsh acidic alcoholic burn on the back of your throat. No good bubbles. To be honest I wont be bothering even with the vintage. We tried them side by side and while the vintage was better there wasn't a great improvement. Would prefer tattigner or pommery at the same price.

Not as expected

Unfortunately, it was reminiscent of a cheap champagne from a supermarket. Nothing special even at 50% off.
