Savvy's Verdict

"Ordering the Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut NV by the glass offers better mathematical value than the bottle. The Devil's Advocate wine list holds exceptional sparkling deals for savvy drinkers. The Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve NV is priced at £90, well below its retail value with a negative markup. Laurent-Perrier La Cuvée Brut NV boasts a stellar 4.4 Vivino score under 28% markup. Ordering 250ml glasses of Cantine Leonardo Sangiovese offers precise per-ml parity against bottle pricing."
