BUY THE WINE

Michael Edwards: This has excellent acidity and is maybe a long-distance runner—contrary to the reputation of this fast-ripening vintage 16.5

Simon Field: Mocha and praline, with lemongrass and tilleul at the back. The palate is resolutely acidic and quite hard to read today 15.5

Tom Stevenson: High-toned, oaky Champagne that probably will be amazing in another 10 years but is not that enjoyable now 15.5
