2. Man, all we had when I was a mod was Korbel.

3. It was still Korbel before I brought these in.
Or this other icky stuff, what's it called? Ah, 'Dom Pérignon.' :shudder:

'I'm ok' is not well enough. :hug:

5. Ah, that sounds better. :)
I think I had Dom Pérignon once, since they had nothing else. Even a 'Veuve Clicquot' can easily rally with it. It's nasty, but since it's not cheap, everybody thinks it's great. I stick with Cristal every time ...

It's like most of the Rothschild vineyard - just overrated stuff. Nice bottles, nice labels, and cement tanks where the wine is stored. It's like believing Chivas Regal is really 12/24 years old. Who put all these huge tanks up 12 years ago? Billions of liters, shipped worldwide? :)

6. Thanks for the information!
I'm NOT a connoisseur of champagne. Hell, I used to drink Andre at one time. :-)

I'm learning.

9. Hmmm ...
I think Heidi has your address. ;)

There are a lot of exceptional champagnes out there for a good price, but mostly unknown. You get very good wine around $30, why should champagne be more? We're paying more and more for labels.
