Expert Opinion

In the press...

Creamy and fresh, this beautiful bubbly with lovely breadth and elegance to the lemony fruit. It can't fail to add a sparkle to a party.

Jamie Goode - Sunday Express 19/12/2010

There’s plenty of authentically savoury yeasty aromas to this attractive light style of fizz from the Union Champagne Co-op with its yeasty, biscuity flavours and crisp dry finish.

Background

Good to drink and well presented

We use this champagne to serve to bridal couples as we provide wedding transport in our vintage cars. Very often a couple will compliment this champagne and for them it is their very first celebratory drink together after getting married. For us it is important that we serve a quality wine that is good to taste and not too strong or acidic. Tesco's Finest Premier Cru Brut Champagne fits the bill perfectly and is available in a 37.5ml bottle as a 75ml bottle would be too much as the couple need to pace themselves for the celebrations that are to come.

Great value champagne, good biscuity taste. Handy size bottle if just wanting a glass before eating or going out.

The perfect Christmas Champagne

By Littleoldwinedrinker

I thought I would try this wine as it was such a good buy at around 40% off. You will not be disappointed even if you pay the full price, its worth every penny. A rich champagne, creamy undertones, smooth velvety bursting with flavours, far more flavoursome than the top non vintage branded names. This is now by far the nicest Champagne that I have tasted in the last two years at least. I was going to give them as Christmas presents. They will not be leaving my house unless they are empty. The service I received from Tesco was excellent
