Henri Delattre, Selection (Magnum), Champagne, France
87
Tasted by:
(at Carousel, London W1, 11 Oct 2017)
Coming in at a penny under £30, this is a great pick for those in the mood for celebrating. This magnum is not particularly high-end, but instead offers cheap thrills with tart green apple flavours accompanied by a light bready note. It's crisp, but the bubbles aren't aggressive like they can be at this price point. If you're on a budget but you prefer the fuller character of Champagne to the lighter, lemon freshness of Prosecco, then give this a try. Available from 30th November.
