91 Point Rated - Huon Hooke The Real Review

Medium to full straw-yellow colour, and a developed, complex, mellow bouquet showing some depth of aged material. Toasted bread Champagne character. The taste is smooth and dry, savoury and imbued with mushroom and bready yeast-matured pinoty complexities. I like this, although it's not especially refined or delicate. The finish is rich, soft and clean - and satisfying.

I have been meaning to try a bottle of Moet NV for a while now, having heard that quality was on the rise. Moet is, of course, the choice of b-list celebrity boozers in this country….

Aromas of citrus, flowers, hazlenut and smoke. On the palate a lighter more delicate style of champagne. Quite minerally/chalky with citrus and soda water flavours. Not sweet either. Fine persistent bead. Well balanced with nothing out of place. Dry minerally finish. Very easy to drink. An excellent ‘standing up’ champagne.

"The minerally undertow imparts a subtle, smoky note that blends with flavors of dried pineapple, biscuit, salted almond and white peach. A balanced version, with a fine bead and well-honed acidity. Drink now through 2018."

“Most loved Champagne in the world, a pleasure to be shared.  Brut Imperial is the Flagship and most accomplished universal expression. Distinguished by its bright fruitiness, it’s very sensitive palate, its elegant maturity. A very complete balance combining together all the diversity and nuances of Champagne. Different grapes, such as Chardonnay, bringing to the blend freshness and finesse elegance a citrus fruit character, combined with Pinot Meunier for white fresh fruits for roundness, suppleness and Pinot Noir for structure, character, vinosity and spiciness.”
