So far, this has been my favorite champagne I have tried. I havent ventured farther than around 40-50$ for a bottle, but I have tried a handful of others in this price range and this one is my favorite. Has a very full spectrum of flavors and there is a sense of refinement that is missing in other champagnes. Toasty and fresh with a lingering finish and a hint of sweetness, this bottle is sure to please.
