'Turn your attention to the delights of English Fizz, such as Ridgeview's fine Cuvée Merret Cavendish, whose creamy full-flavoured mousse and energisingly tangy acidity tastes as good as the real thing." - Anthony Rose, The Independent

'Here's one of England's finest fizzes, with lovely freshness, lemony acidity and a bit of toasty richness. Quite complex and brilliantly balanced, this would convert any sceptic.' -Jamie Goode, Daily Express
