One or two?
Counting seems not to be your strong suit!
Or perhaps it is memory melt down?

[straitman]

maybe I should carry (some of) my spares with me to AFF events , just in case anyone wants some?

Yes Please.

I look forward to it.

Prince Wine Store has Canard-Duchene Cuvee Leonie NV for $49 which seems to be at least $10 cheaper than elsewhere - anyone tried it before?

There's a sculptor from Qld called Linde Ivimey who does some sculptures dressed in the foil from champagnes she has drunk over 15 years or so. Feel free to Google her, I won't post the pics as they can be a little risquÃ

not for the wine itself but a lot of respect for PWS so would be happy to try on their recommendation!

Give the PWS guys a call and have a chat about what you like in a Chamoagne and what they have to offer.
They will be happy to help.

I agree with burmans' comment. They are terrific.

[post=1620555]Seppelt Show Sparkling Shiraz 2007[/post] and [post=1556073]Arras Grand Vintage 2007[/post] are wines of the year in Tyson Stelzer's 2017 Australian Sparkling Report

cellardoor.co has the Seppelt for $80 until this Sunday - not as cheap as [post=1620555]$75[/post] but better if you have [post=1620542]$20 credit[/post] to make it $60

Supposedly 2-3 years from what I've read though I've had a bottle of Veuve in the laundry cupboard for 5 years so imagine the temperature and humidity fluctuations it had to put up with. Tasted the same as a newer bottle except less bubbly.

Not champagne, but my go to would be https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_20381/brown-brothers-pinot-noir-chardonnay-pinot-meunier or possibly https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_118192/jansz-premium-cuv-e?orgSearchTerm=jan

Maybe a few of each to mix it up.

I second the Jansz and add Pirie NV

 

[Lizzi]

As others have said, the Jansz is a nice drop, or if she likes NZ whites, the Cloudy Bay Pelorus is one of our faves:
