Advice on champagne

[pagingjoan]

Finally I can now enjoy Champagne for brekkie every morn and not feel too guilty:

On a serious note Dan's have Mumm at $37.90 in any six - take off the wish and cash back and it's about $32.50 I think - gotta be a great buy at that.

Now on that package - and the Deutz sheep dip - we are in accord. No disagreement at all.

Perhaps it's time to Quibble Cruiser...

$32.40 a bottle using Wish & Qwibble... Very affordable everyday Champagne.

Went to Dan's today and bought 2 bottles of Mumm for Mothers Day. See what I did there? Lol

At the corner shop in Paris this morning Mumm is 28 Euro and Veuve is marked at 41 Euro

They served that 3 weeks ago when I flew them - I thought it was New Zealand Champagne coz it tasted like Sheep Dip!

They serve it on MH too

Wow... Mumm in OZ ~25% cheaper than Paris.

*includes rebates and wish card discount

I wouldn't pay 10 euro for Mumm that s*it is nasty

Disagree with that.

I disagree strongly, its very very drinkable at a price point ~$32-$38... sure its no pol roger but a very honest everyday champagne in my opinion

I'll open and enjoy a Mumm any day of the week - good honest value IMHO.

I had the most dreadful headache after drinking Mumm last weekend with a bunch of friends.
Shrek maintains that the reason for this is that it's likely the Mumm was consumed after several glasses of Veuve and Taittinger.
I think he's wrong and that I would have been fine if the last bar visited had actually served Taittinger.

I think it was the Mumm. The F1 drivers must know something too, they don't drink much of it, just spray it around.

Are you sure this wasn't a simple quantity issue?

Strangely, champagne is a fluid I can drink until I feel enough is enough (the point just before the head starts to swim when the eyes are closed) without ever having a headache next morning (usually that morning).

I have gone through about a case worth of Mumm and it was honestly putrid. I'll just chalk it up to taste buds... I also don't like Dom and would take a bottle of Bollinger/pol roger/billiecart NV any day. On a side note has everyone tried the Lanson gold? I think its awesome value for 50 bucks a bottle ATM.

Had the Lanson Gold on VA last week and really enjoyed it. But I also don't mind the odd bottle of Mumm.

A princess would never over-indulge.

Vitagen, please dont put yourself through pain and discomfort like that. I would have happily taken the half finished case off your hands... next time im just a PM away ;-)

The Lanson Gold 2004 has been a frequent attendee at pre-dinner drinks here recently. More than pleasant.
And if Shintaro can't cope with all your leftover Cordon Rouge, I'm happy to help, too.
