Me too - after reading this whole thread over the past few days, I've been feeling the need to expand the champagne fridge!

This may not go down well (no pun intended) but here goes.
I was just on my first QF F flight and had the Taittinger CDC 2000. That was the only one loaded.
I wasn't a fan of it. The first glass was OK and I thought it would get better with time. Five glasses later, it was the same.

I don't know if it is a house thing - I really like the NV - probably my favourite NV but I didn't like the Millesime 2005 either.

QF F also have VC LGD 2004 on their rotation as well - it must be a recent addition.

Looking forward to trying the PR SWC 2000 or the LGD if they are loaded on my next F flights later this year.

Looks like DM's has Piper for $35/bottle ($31.80 in a six with SH).

this probably belongs in another thread, but has anyone else seen the penfolds/vintec offer on front of AFR today? Quick perusal of Dan's shows should be able to pick up the 6 wines for about $180.

anyone with particular experience of that model of vintec (30 bottle-r), or vintec in general? seems like a great buy at first squiz.

Dans stores had a tasting of the Dom P; first time I've tasted it and quite enjoyed it. Not quite enough to fork out $179 however.

Unlike the guy who cleaned out the store by buying the remaining 6 bottles (and the last 6 of the Wolf Blass Black Label, but that's for another thread).

We popped down to try it too. Like it

 

[Keith009]

Bought a few bottles of the Dom 2004 which was at practically Changi Airport duty free pricing. Then noticed Bollinger, Mumm and Billecart NVs on sale again.... (the OH also took a liking to the Octomore 5 year but that's for another thread) guess we'd better drink hard to clear some space in our 'cellar.'

My advice is that even a Tuesday is an excellent day to drink champagne.... oh how I love lamb shanks and bubbly ;-)

You mean there's a day when it isn't excellent to drink champagne?

 

[Deleted User]

Oh how you are correct.... but we save billiecart for the weekends ;-) on another note its wonderful coming home to yet another box of mixed champers at ~$40 a pop...!

Cheers fellow champagne drinkers ;-)

Has anyone tried this:
[h=1]Moutard Brut Grande Cuvee NV[/h]LL has it for $25, single bottle:

[ric_melb]

I have bought Moutard at other Coles outlets when its around $30+. My memory is clean fresh and fruity. Very much enjoyed it. I think at $25 its a steal. But best you buy a bottle, and if you like it, stock up.

Try this, it's really good
