Pleasant but not special
Pleasant but rather bland. I was surprised to see the recent comments about the excessive acidity of this wine, we have found it slightly sweet. On a 1-10 scale we would put it at 2. Other own label champagnes at a similar price have more character and distinctiveness.
Disappointing and very acidic
I’ve had this Champagne a couple of times before and it was very good. However this last bottle I bought was very disappointing. As other reviewers have found it was incredibly acidic and not at all pleasant to drink. I see that Tesco now recommend it to go with fish and chips. I assume they mean to pour it on the chips in lieu of vinegar! I shan’t be buying another bottle. Save your money and buy a good Cremant de Bourgogne.
Much too Acidic!
Really disappointing when compared to other 'value' champagnes from other from Tesco being far too acidic and quite harsh. I guess that each person's palette is subjective, however this is the second bottle of the same wine bought within 6 months and both had the same characteristics. Won't be purchasing this one again!
Wow
This champagne is amazing. I was so drunk on Christmas Day.
Disappointing
Really didn't enjoy this and would rather have spent more on getting something better or just having a much cheaper Prosecco.
Brilliant champagne as good as any branded one

Fish Finger Butty!
The label says to eat with fish and chips, I didn't have fish and/or chips at hand but after a good root around, I found half a pack of fish fingers at the back of the freezer. I quickly knocked up a fish finger butty and job's a good'un. I usually prefer champagne with a heavier blend of pinot noir & pinot meunier but chardonnay seems to be the prominent grape variety on offer here. Even so, it's great value and aside from fish and chips, it could also be taken with other foods. Trevor, from next door, loved the fish finger butty but much to his annoyance had to contend with prosecco as I only bought 2 bottles of Tesco Premier Cru.
Really rather good!!
For the money excellent value. I bought a couple of bottles prior to Christmas after seeing some very favourable reviews in the press. I really liked it, not as good as my favourite Bolly but that is at least double the price.
Very disappointing!
It was like drinking raw lemon juice with bubbles. Far too acidic and well over priced. I was really looking forward to drinking this champagne after seeing the apparent rewards it had won. Far too acidic and not nice. Certainly not worthy of any kind of award!
Exceptional Champagne, exceptional price.
Excellent Champagne at a marvellous price!
