Tasting Notes
A wine with so many awards to its name, it needs a cabinet.
A classic blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with the grapes coming from top-rated Premier and Grand Cru vineyards, this is a sophisticated Champagne with classic toasty aromas and fresh, crisp citrus and apple flavours.
Serve chilled, on its own or with canapes like smoked salmon blinis, or go crazy and have it with fish & chips - a great match!
- Medium Dry

Expert Opinion
In the press...
Jamie Goode - S Magazine (Sunday Express) 18/11/2012“This award winning fizz (International Wine Challenge Great Value Fizz) is really classy, with lovely apple and citrus fruit flavours and herb and toast notes adding complexity. It’s super value at this price too.”
The Wine Gang - thewinegang.com 01/01/2013This own-label, classic Chardonnay and Pinot Noir blend from Union Champagne in Avize shows a beguiling yeasty/biscuity nose with a lively, fresh textured mousse and undertones of toastiness, grilled nuts and honey behind the vivid fruit flavours. It's a serious Champagne that deserves all the plaudits
Carly Gammage - Saturday Magazine, Daily Express 02/02/2013“Tesco’s Finest Premier Cru Non-Vintage Champagne is a sophisticated sparkler brimming with crisp citrus notes and a creamy finish.”

Jamie Goode - S Magazine, Sunday Express 07/04/2013“Creamy and fresh, this is quite a serious fizz, with lovely breadth and elegance to the lemony fruit. It’s stylish and shows a lot of finesse.”
