### Moët &amp; Chandon Impérial Brut Non-Vintage, £29

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** This one is quite crisp and citrusy in style, with notes of lemon, pear and added pastry nuances throughout. Don’t worry, it still has a refreshing finish.  
**Why I like it:** This iconic champagne is one of the most recognisable and popular labels in the world – and with its fresh elegance, it’s easy to see why.  
**Pair it with:** This champagne is a wonderful brunch companion – perfect for popping open on Christmas morning and enjoying with scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and presents.

### Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Brut Non-Vintage, £25

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** On first sip, you’ll taste ripe apple and yellow pear, with hints of almond, cashews and a touch of fresh lemon.  
**Why I like it:** This classic champagne is a real crowd-pleaser, with an ideal balance between textured orchard fruit flavours and lively acidity on the finish.   
**Pair this with:** Perfect for sitting around the fire with family and festive snacks – think pigs in blankets, devils on horseback and homemade blinis.

### Lanson Le Rosé Brut Non-Vintage, £30

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** This one is elegant and refreshing, with notes of rose, subtle strawberry and raspberry – all enveloped in a delicious creamy mousse.   
**Why I like it:** Rosé champagne always feels like such a treat. The fresh red berry notes make this bottle such a great pairing with food.   
**Pair this with:** A classic afternoon tea has to be one of the best pairings here. Tuck into fingers sandwiches, a couple of scones, and mini berry tarts to match perfectly with the fruity notes in the rosé.

### Henri Dosnon Brut Sélection Non-Vintage, £22.99

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** This one is fruity and ripe – think red apple, quince, fleshy peach and lemon pith. At the finish, you’ll taste a note of fresh pastries.  
**Why I like it:** Produced by a micro-négociant, this is an exquisitely crafted, superb quality champagne at a shockingly good price point. Buy it now before it sells out.  
**Pair it with:** A delightful aperitif choice to enjoy with buttery nocellara olives, baked camembert and parmesan straws. Ideal for a small drinks gathering – if we’re allowed!

### Pierre Gimonnet et Fils Blanc de Blancs Cuis Premier Cru Brut Non-Vintage, £29

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** Sweet, sweet, sweet: for me, it’s reminiscent of lemon curd, white peach and freshly baked croissants – but still with a vibrant mineral finish.   
**Why I like it:** This blanc de blancs champagne is made entirely from white chardonnay grapes, which results in a well-structured, precise and refreshing style of sparkling wine.   
**Pair it with:** An excellent pairing with white fish dishes such as halibut, seabass and monkfish, especially when served with a lemon butter sauce. A great main course pour.

### Barnaut Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru Brut Non-Vintage, £27.95

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** This one is full textured, with notes of ripe grapefruit, red apple, brioche and a hint of red cherry fruit.   
**Why I like it:** This blanc de noirs champagne is made entirely from red pinot noir grapes, resulting in a rounded and rich style of sparkling wine.   
**Pair it with:** With its depth of texture and complexity of flavours, this champagne is an excellent match for hearty poultry dishes like chicken tarragon – it could even be your festive fizz of choice for your Christmas turkey.

### Ayala Brut Nature Zero Dosage Non-Vintage, £29.50

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** A warning – this champagne is very dry, with notes of lemon and white flowers, with a distinct mineral freshness and bright acidity.  
**Why I like it:** ‘Zero dosage’ or ‘Brut nature’ styles of champagne have zero added sugar, so in theory, they should be much kinder to your waistline – perfect for those who enjoy a really crisp and refreshing style of sparkling wine.   
**Pair it with:** With its delicate flavours, this champagne is a good pairing with fresh seafood – like oysters on the rocks, shellfish platters, sushi, sashimi and caviar.

### Pannier ‘Seduction’ Demi-Sec Non-Vintage, £30 

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** Luscious, and with a full texture and a distinct sweetness, here you’ll taste notes of baked apricots, toasted almonds and honey.   
**Why I like it:** Demi-sec champagnes have noticeable residual sugar and are a wonderfully indulgent and delicious style of sparkling wine. Today, however, they are made in small quantities as worldwide taste trends have leaned towards drier varieties.   
**Pair it with:** Excellent with all sorts of festive desserts, this one will work beautifully with a cheese board, too. The combination of the sweetness of the champagne with the saltiness of the cheese is pretty hard to beat.

### 2010 Nicolas Feuillatte Vintage Collection Brut, £27.99

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** Unctuous and creamy, you’re bound to notice notes of ripe apricot, baked apple pie and honeysuckle in this sip.  
**Why I like it:** Having been aged for ten years, this vintage champagne will have started to develop beautifully concentrated and rich notes, making it a great pairing with heavier, more gastronomic dishes.  
**Pair it with:** In short, anything with truffle. The intensity of this champagne matches well with the richness of flavour found in truffles, while the acidity and hint of honey will lift the umami quality.

### 2011 Heidsieck &amp; Co Monopole Gold Top Brut, £29.99 

**Country:** Champagne, France  
**Tastes like:** This one is so reminiscent of sweet treats like lemon meringue pie, gingernut biscuits with delicious toasty and buttery notes and a fine mousse.   
**Why I like it:** This vintage champagne has incredibly complex and layered flavours, and provides such great quality for the price.  
**Pair it with:** This is such a versatile bottle that you could easily use throughout the year, not just at Christmas. Pair it with rich seafood and creamy or cheesy dishes such as lobster mac and cheese, a luxurious fish pie, or a hot crab gratin.
