but for the cost of champagne, I certainly wouldn't be able to do a blind taste-test and tell it apart from other sparkling wines.

I bet half the people rushing down to Morrisons to stock up on Moet wouldn't be able to either. Or they might even prefer a good cava in a blind tasting - Moet is as much about what is on the outside of the bottle as what's in it.

Alot of the champs' original prices are inflated by say Morrisons by £5 so the bargain is not as much as you think you are getting!

All the good stuff sold out in High Wycombe Morrisons store. The manger of the wine dept. was so rude when I asked if they had any more or were expecting any more that I will not be going back there, thank you!!!

Shop virtually every week at Morrisons. I knew about the offer last week went today and not one bottle on offer sold out, bitterly disappointed I wanted two bottle for xmas and new year normally cant afford to buy it but thought what the hell

I didnt do my shop there this week after that

Just remember you are paying extra for the region it is grown in. Not for the quality.
When your looking at the Champange and Sparkling Wines, ask yourself if this was another product would I pay more to have it made in a particular place?

Considering how quickly a bottle can go round a family, get a good quality Cava. The great thing about that is you can buy it dry or sweet. Champange is always dry.

Sainsburys have some good offers on, similar to the half price deals at Morrisons.

Talking about the difference in taste etc, I don't really like to drink wines or champagne. But the few I do like happen to be Piper, Laurent Perrier and Moet.

Went down to our nearest Morrisons. No Bollinger, no Möet, no Nicolas Feuillatte, no Lanson. And not because there ever was any either.
If it was to get me into the place, it worked.
I feel a bit cheated.

They lost around £400 of shopping from me for this year
