Prestige Cuvée Champagnes from 2002: Tasting hosted by Jancis Robinson MW

Full coverage of The Finest Bubble's Champagne tasting hosted by Jancis Robinson MW at 67 Pall Mall on 6th October 2016 - a blind comparison of Prestige Cuvées from 2002.

Does a tasting of fifteen of the most highly regarded prestige cuvée Champagnes get any better? The simple answer is yes, though only because they are all from the revered 2002 vintage; a vintage that is spoken about by many experts as one of the best in Champagne. This tasting event was truly one of a kind. Fittingly, along with these world-class prestige cuvée Champagnes, we had the world's leading wine critic Jancis Robinson MW presenting the event and she talked guests through a fantastic discovery. The Champagnes were blind tasted, allowing for an objective comparison.

The 15 Champagnes we tasted in blind pairs were:
