The times are a changing. When was the last time you saw Cristal under 2 Bills? And from a good vintage.

I will only be impressed with the price, Wetrock, if you tell me you are a buyer…

I take it you’re bringing some to the next EWG since it’s such a great QPR.

Haven’t tried it yet but when I can get what I’m sure is an equal or better bottle from the same vintage for a third of even THIS price that makes it a PASS! High rolla’s like Robo on the other hand…

@Charlie Fu

why is my youtube link failing.

Because you are full of fail. Aren’t you use to it yet? Looks OK. Go back and double check the link. Use the ‘embed’ link to the right of the video.

Not a very good Champagne in my opinion.

While Cristal can be overpriced in some/many vintages, I think some generalize negatively too much. For instance, '89 and '90 Cristal are excellent and I’m not generally a fan of Cristal at almost any price.
