Wine is subjective. Try the Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blanc, but in a slightly different price bracket to the NV I have tasty 2000 awaiting a special occasion in the next 15 years...

Vintage champagne is out of my budget, unfortunately. Will just have to rely on the 'specials' they have from time-to-time in the F lounges - although I have never seen Vintage champagne in the lounges.
I'm certain there is vintage in the SYD F lounge. Certainly is onboard in F.

I think they had the 2002 as late as early Jan, not sure about now, but will find out next week.Is that what QF have in F? I didnt actually like the QF F Champagne on QF127 to HKG - thought it smelled earthly.
Earthly? Interesting adjective for champagne you prefer the extra-terrestrial varietals? haha
It tasted like mushrooms.
Damn autocorrect
Agreed! Taittinger is streets ahead of Piper (although the Charles Heidseick isn't too bad).Taittinger to Piper is a real QF 'enhancement'
No Vintage in the F lounges. There's the regular Taittinger (not even the Cuvee Prestige!), Veuve and Delamot I think were the offerings on Tuesday (in MEL), and SYD had the same last week.I'm certain there is vintage in the SYD F lounge. Certainly is onboard in F.
I like the Taittinger NV too, but I'm guessing you like something sweeter? I also don't like the Veuve Clicquot much. GH Mumm Cordon Rouge is an underrated drop.

You are probably right. Unless they open a bottle especially for actual F pax .
They certainly had the Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blanc onboard at Christmas time, a 2002 I think.
Maybe I should press the point in the Flounge week after next when travelling in F. Could result in an enhancement in the non-QF sense of the word
We have four days in the area on this year's summer holiday agenda and I can't wait for it!I spent a couple of weeks in the champagne region around Reims, & Epernay and thoroughly recommend it!
