Advice again please - I want a couple botts Stradivarius if anybody can tell me where to find it. VC were showing stock a few days ago so I placed Order but since been advised no stock.
Has anyone got any advice on birth year champagne purchasing? Specifically, I'd been hoping to pick up a bottle for my daughter's birth in 2018. I'm familiar with how to do that with red wine, but unsure no champagne.. hoping there might be others who could help answer the following:
- By all accounts i've read 2018 was a great year, and would be a 'vintage' year. My understanding is that not all years are 'vintage' years.. is that correct? will there be '2018 vintage' champagne?
- When would the 2018 vintage champagne be released? Most red wine from the 2018 vintage is being released nowish, although some may take a few more years
- Any recommendations on vendors to go to for purchasing? Dan's selection always seems slightly haphazard.. MWG/TWC etc are also hit and miss
- Are any of the above questions just silly?
there's no hurry, vintage champagne are generally the last wines to be released - latest one now is perhaps 2012, Krug is currently 2006 - so you should have at least 5 years to save before spending on 2018 if/when declared
Ah - good to know! I've been much more active on the red-wine front, so wanted to make sure I didn't miss out on the bubbly too.. appreciate the quick response!

Bollinger has launched the premier edition of its first new Champagne cuvée since 2008 - PN VZ 15
As the name implies, it is a 100% Pinot Noir built on a core of fruit from Verzenay and based on the 2015 vintage.
Anyone know the cheapest place to buy a bottle of Dom?

I had a daughter in 2019 - so far I have 5 magnums of Grosset Polish Hill Riesling.
My dream would be to get an allocation of Wendouree and get a few of their reds to put down... Clare Valley being the theme...

re Roederer, watch for 15-20% off sales on eBay that include Nicks or Dan's - some DM stores had Billecart on clearance last yearStill, would be really keen on some discount Billecart-Salmon or Louis Roederer if it ever makes it to these deals, never found myself with a bottle of either!

Few and far between but LGA still available in Glenrose NSW for instanceThanks, got a few of the Billecart. Not sure where you saw the Boll but it wasn't even listed anywhere when I tried to find it!
Dee Why also has some (hoping you are Sydney based and this is not just a tease)Oddly, it can’t even find “glenrose” in the app to choose as a store?

Apparently Belrose is the suburb and you can’t search by store name.
And now Boll does come up. I’m going to feed back to them about their terrible app.
