Beer Drinker needs help picking a Champagne for a party. - GoFuckYourself.com

Furious_Male · 12-31-2004, 12:58 PM

Title says it all. What is a decent Champagne I could take to the party that shows my appreciation for being invited (new neighboors with a bunch of rich ass friends).

Any recommendations?

nofx · 12-31-2004, 12:58 PM

dont get a Brut kind

brand0n · 12-31-2004, 12:59 PM

whats your budget?

just get a bottle of dom, run you round 100 bucks and youll look like a pimp.

candyflip · 12-31-2004, 12:59 PM

Everyone loves when the bottle says "Cristal".

100-200 is fine. Dom sounds nice.

OzMan · 12-31-2004, 01:05 PM

I like http://www.freixenetusa.com/ for $10 - $20 a bottle

or 96 Dom is about $130

Depends how much you want to impress

Furious_Male · 12-31-2004, 01:13 PM

With a few phone calls I managed to find a bottle of 90 Dom (they had the 96 as well) for $175. Seems a bit high but I am sure they are taking advantage of last minute shoppers.

I cant find Cristal anywhere right now.

RottenPug · 12-31-2004, 01:13 PM

Get the PJ Rose, all the strippers love it.

Pierre Jouet I believe is how it's spelled. Around $130-150 a bottle if I'm not mistaken.

Otherwise get the Dom P, the DP Rose is like $220+. Never been a huge fan of Cristal personally, and I tend to go with whatever the girls like since I'm not aiming to get ME too drunk to walk.

Thanks. Going to check on the Pierre Jouet as well

Yea this is for a New Years Party. If I hadn't waited I would have probably been able to come up with something hard to get. Been so damn busy I forgot until late last night. Going to head out now. Making some phone calls to try to find some of these suggestions first.

found a review about it here http://www.everywine.co.uk/invt/30764,
mre expensive than dom, kind of surprised me, but that is because french champagne is really expensive in Spain, guess Spanish cava (same thing as champagne) is also expensive in other parts of the world

QualityMpegs · 12-31-2004, 01:24 PM

asti spumanti martini and rossi is always pretty good and reasonably priced

You can normally find a bottle of Moet Chandon (White Star) at the grocery store for arounf $35. Sells in fine restaurants and cruises for like $80. Goes down easy and tastes rather well

brand0n · 12-31-2004, 01:43 PM

90 dom for 175 isnt that bad new years eve. you could knock 50 bucks off that tag if you wait till tomorrow to buy it.
haggle with them. no shit. tell them you talked to so and so booze and they have a 91 for 150. and a bottle of 94 for 110. tell them u want the 90, but you are looking for a deal. odds are they will knock 10-20% off right there just to score the sale.

Shoplifter · 12-31-2004, 02:11 PM

Go for the Dom or Bollinger if you can find it.

If you are on a budget go with Moet.

Stay away from Cristal and other plebian crap.

Dax · 12-31-2004, 02:14 PM

Cristal at liquor stores: $150

At clubs down here $2.000

Furious_Male · 12-31-2004, 03:22 PM

Thanks for all the suggestions. I managed to get a bottle of 90 Dom. Didn't get much of a price break but what the hell its a holiday

Have a great and safe New Year everyone.

Hey another Freixenet fan

But I bet you were raised on it as it is made in Barcelona right?

My sister won a trip to the 92 Olympics in Barcelona from a competition on a bottle, that's how I found out about the brand

pornguy · 12-31-2004, 03:29 PM

I love PJ Rose, and white star Moet & Chandon.
Dom is nice also, but not may first choice.
If you want to impress, go with Dom, it's the most expensive of the 3 ;)
