Advice on champagne

[AFAFA]

Pity you didn't post about it

I did not consider it a good deal even at the slightly sub $50 price in a six pack.

Bugger. Have I just bought a 6 pack of average champagne?

Mumm
Grand Cordon Rose $80 at Liquorland, after 30% CB $56-$57 (Shopback)

It's also part of the bonus 3000 pts deal, therefore bringing it down to just above $42-$43

Mumm Vintage is a solid buy at $85 at VC, plus 20% CB. Itd be around $69-70

Thoughts on the Pommery $54 a bottle with QFF? No bulk bonus points, sadly

I think Pommery is the biggest seller in France. Not tried it for a long time.

Tyson Stelzer gives it 86pts, not a great tasting note.

The Pommery was very nice at $22 a bottle during the last QFF wine promotion

Generally though I quite like it. I would pay ~$50 a bottle, and give it preference over the Piper or Moet NVs at the same price point.

As with any wine it's going to be subjective.

Main question you should be asking is...do you like it and do you think it's worth $54/bottle?

Personally, it's a no from me at that price. Having said that, Champagne prices are certainly on the up and if you are low on stocks and need some, then maybe not a bad deal.

I can’t recall it, tbh. Seems expensive compared to the old deals but, as you say, nothing for a while now!

Not really any deals since the 1st February when champagne prices went up by 20% generally.

I don’t like it and didn’t buy even when it was priced much less on QF by mistake, because if you don’t like something it doesn’t matter how much or how little it costs IMO.

Off course taste is subjective and YMMV.

Just to close the loop. Cracked the first one last night and very impressed. Excellent value the price point.

Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

Anyone tried Pommery Apanage Blanc de Blancs NV?
Qantas wine has it on sale. Thinking it might be worth a try.
Looking for reviews online but they are quite scarce.

$100 on sale, plus 30% cashback at the moment via Shopback til 8pm.

Not sure if coincidence of it was meant to be but I'd just ordered a bottle via ShopBack too, been waiting a while to try this so jumped on it when I saw the 30% and $100.

It seemed like good value. What did your cashback track at?

Nil at the moment, haven't seen a tracking email come through. Strange part is I used flypay, my cc has been debited but I received an email saying my item was still waiting in the cart and payment froze with a spinning wheel. I guess it maybe worked?!

My last order took a few days to track, which was odd.

I don't quite understand flypay, I was thinking of paying with flybuys but didn't have the option at the checkout, I thought that was what it was meant to be for but seems like PayPal with a different name that doesn't work as well?

FC 30% ShopBack finally tracked this morning (less GST).

Got text saying my LPR order is out of stock (in QLD).
FC offered VC Ponsardin 2012 as replacement, seems fair.
