Tempting wine purchases you’ve passed on—give others a shot

In for a case for dad.

All gone now. That’s a heck of a deal.

Envoyer just offered 750s and mags of Diebolt-Vallois Cuvee Prestige for $50 and $110 respectively. This is a terrific wine that is especially fine in magnum, even more so than most other champagnes, I believe. I don’t think you can do much better in the QPR department for this style.

You won’t be sorry. The mags are special.

@alan_weinberg Hope you enjoy!

We just reloaded from France or I would have ordered more myself.

Yeah I have quite a few of the mags already but can never have enough good affordable champagne mags.

You have to get on Instagram, my friend.

I spend too much time here as it is. I started Instagram but follow only William Kelly. I’m not on Facebook either.

Then you will understand why I choose not to spend the time reposting here!

Mags of 19 Spottswoode at K&L for $389.99, insiders advantage

Also 20 Arnot Roberts Watson Ranch chard for $28.99 but I snagged the last 5 of those

If anyone is in Kentucky, this is a pretty good price on 19 lignier CDLR

I just purchased 2010 Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé Champagne from K&L for $120, how did I do Champagne experts?

Well I would say 0/10. This is a forum for tempting purchases that you passed on and there is a separate thread for “what is your most recent purchase” so again, 0/10.

Jokes aside, 2010 is a very hit or miss vintage in Champagne so I can’t say how this one will be. Curious about opinions, but there’s a champagne thread for that.

nobody can say, since it’s the first time they produced this wine! I had never seen it before.

lol, that’s fair Tony :smiley:

Good point David!

Astor 20% of French still wines, unfortunately allemand is sold out. Some decent prices on lignier and others.

This wine is delicious, if super young. Superb persistence and density, super light color, pineapple and peaches and petrol and petrichor. Shoulda grabbed more than I did.
