These are the top 10 champagnes of 2018

According to a new list, the best champagne of 2018 is the Dom Pérignon Rosé 2006.

In the blind tasting organised by Fine Champagne magazine, members of the magazine’s editorial board and guest experts swished, sipped and swirled to determine the best champagne-drinking experiences.

“Stunningly concentrated and packed with succulent fruitiness, the wine already now shows a beautiful complexity of gunpowder, liquorice and oriental spices complementing the plush yet firm Pinot fruit,” editors say of the winner.

The competition was co-hosted with tastingbook.com, an online wine resource.
