Buy or no buy? Currently at WTSO.

I passed the last time they offered it for this price, but am wondering if I will this time.

Only if you plan on having 4 people at your wedding…then buy 2 bottles.

A big “no” here, sally-jersey boy. You can do better.

What would the other three drink?

Terence_T-Bone_Livingston · May 22, 2009, 6:17am

Alize? Or maybe some 40’s of Colt 45?

The fact that this is on WTSO should tell you how some cuvees and producers have been hit by the economy.

This is a fair price for Cristal, but you can find a better way to spend $189 on Champagne IMO. Give me 3 bottles and change of the 2002 Roederer BdB for this same price and I am happy. Now, if you like Cristal and want to try this vintage, this is a good price to buy at. Not the best, but very fair.

Cheers!

Rick… Hart Davis Hart has it for $178.

But WTSO probably said that the best price on the web yesterday was $243.815789058?

$178 is a very good price.

There is A LOT of this wine in the market.

I am sure we will continue to see low prices on this one
