The Comité Champagne London Tasting 

Produced by a comparatively young Champagne house that gets better with every release, this blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay is appealingly elegant and refined, with low dosage and a bright, refreshing finish.

91/100 Alain Thiénot Brut Champagne NV An exotic sparkler, displaying rich, caramelized smoke and brioche notes, balanced with citrusy acidity and flavors of ripe apple, candied pineapple, lemon meringue and crystallized honey. Mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2018

93/100 Alain Thiénot Champagne Grande Cuvée 1999 Offers a fine balance between rich, smoky nut and coffee character and flavors of ripe pear, pineapple, lemon meringue and ground ginger, with well-meshed, firm acidity. A hint of coffee liqueur show
