Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Iv been well informed that this is a very good champagne,but im struggling to find a shop that sells single bottles of it. Been told Bollinger is good, but this stuff is better,and costs around the same. Has anyone come across any available to buy in shops at all? Hoping to get Blanc de blanc,but we shall see what happens Quote
Lexx Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 http://www.majestic.co.uk/find/keyword-is-krug Single bottles of Krug. Quote
Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Sorry,should have been more specific, was hoping to find a shop i could physically walk into and buy a bottle,rather than online,as dont really trust an online company with a half decent bottle of bubbly. Or am i being precious? Quote
Squee Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Majestic do have 'bricks n mortar' stores. Is there not one near you? Quote
Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Was hoping not to spend more than £100 really, and the 2 Majestic have online are both well beyond that. I think there is one in MK,il have a search and see if they have a greater selection in their shop Quote
Lexx Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Majestic do have 'bricks n mortar' stores. Is there not one near you? What he says ^^ They are a genuine store based company, with an online side business. I've bought off them many times in the past, and always had a simple transaction and rapid delivery. Quote
AK350Z Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Can't see the attraction of champers, it tastes horrible and gives you a big bad head If you want something white, fizzy and drinkable, get some Prosecco and save a fortune. Quote

I'm with you on this. Hence why it will be Prosecco and not Champers at my wedding! (That and I'm tight) Quote
Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 We have Procesco, and both enjoy it, but this going to be for a special occasion Quote
DoogyRev Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Cristal as an alternative? Cristal Meth ...................... Quote
Jay Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Dude a nice bottle of Krug should be up at in 2- 300 regions. But to answer your question... are you being a little precious..... well yes.. but your only precious because your buying fancy champagne Get a nice bottle of Dp or veuve clicquot, that should hit the spot Quote
Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Cristal as an alternative? Cristal Meth ...................... Nice one! Quote
Vik54 Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 You won't get Krug for the same £ as Bolly! Go for a mid-range Perrier Jouet - or if you want to splash out go for their Belle Epoque @ circa £100 depending on the year Quote

Iv never tried DP before, but was told the Krug was very good, so going on recommendation by a guy that i trust. Quote
sasha@lazytrips Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Alternatively you could buy a £1.99 bottle of white and fart into it. Quote

Jay Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Krug is better by far.. .well in my taste anyway... but your going to have to pay good dollar for it Quote

Depends - what do you like? Citrus and apply or buttery? Strawberries or Peaches? Quote
Daryl Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 If its any sort of reference,we both loved Martini Asti Procesco, but my partner prefers dry white wine Quote
DoogyRev Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Personally, I don't think there is much difference in a bottle that cost £50 to one that cost £250...... other then "this was £250 so it must be good" Don't get caught in that trap I have noticed that a bottle does not go that far either ........

Jay Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Well krug tastes like none of the above. My local wine merchant sells Krug amongst many other champagnes... but I live in Glasgow so I cant help I am afraid. Quote
