Thread 'Advice on champagne'

Oct 20, 2012

Need a bit of advice from the champagne-lovers out there. I know there are a few of you!

I do not drink champagne. Am strictly a red wine lover. (actually I only love Argentine Malbecs, everything else is just a make-do subsitute)

I simply know nothing about the bubbly stuff!! But my wife is getting addicted. She has always vaguely enjoyed the traditional stuff consumed by us average people in Australia. Asti Martini, etc etc etc. $10 - $20 a bottle stuff. But after doing a few flights on LAN and Qantas J, and hanging out in the good lounges, recently she has sampled some much better...

You may find you’ve paid for it, like I did yesterday. But bought would mean receiving it, which I was informed I won’t be.

I just wonder for how long they are going to be putting these deals up (third day today) and if Amazon is going to do anything about it.

Is it a strategy to be given the visibility priority?

Being visibly unreliable doesn’t seem a great strategy.

Here is some background

I actually have a bottle of the High Seas Navy Strength version, just dug it out of the Gin stash, paid just over $100 for it from Spirits of France. It's pretty fiery, will try it later with some tonic. It would make a pretty mean Negroni though

My mixed dozen order arrived today, the box shrink-wrapped in black plastic and each individual bottle bubble-wrapped.

The wines seem to be generally current release, except for a couple. Turkey Flat Sparkling Shiraz is 2019 disgorgement and the two bottles of Felton Road Bannockburn Pinot Noir were 1x2024 and 1x2012, very strange, but a chance to taste an older Felton Rd, hope the storage has been good..

I sent them a message prior to ordering and they promptly replied and advised the Sons of Eden Remus and Romulus was from 2015, which I was happy with. . I also ordered some Hentley Farm wines I have never tried and are rarely discounted. Pretty stoked with the haul.
