5waldos Posted June 27, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Pommery Brut Royal Is that standard across the fleet? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbylane Posted June 28, 2014 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Just as an aside, Wine Spectator rates Monopole 89-91 and Pommery Brute Royal 88-90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's really a matter of one's palate - the two labels are actually produced by the same conglomerate. I requested a side-by-side tasting of Heidsieck Monopole Blue Top and Pommery Brut Royal but was told the former had been discontinued on the Spirit for several months.

derbylane Posted June 28, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Good information, I did not know that. Friends just arrived on Tuesday after sailing on Cloud. They brought with them a Pommery "Louise" which was a gift from TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnycruise Posted June 29, 2014 #7 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Pommery "Louise" is a very generous gift! I hope your friends will share it with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prada Cowboy Posted June 29, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Louise is delicious! I had as well a Monoplole and Pommery tasting and Pommery won! It is a decent Champagne and good drinkable iced by the pool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbylane Posted July 1, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I am not very knowledgeable of campaign but as a 1st lieutenant ,stationed in Germany, visited Epernay (spelling) in the early 70's and just loved the yeasty smell of the wine. The caves were just beyond belief. Just wonderful the care given to each bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vistaman Posted July 6, 2014 #10 Share Posted July 6, 2014 "cuvee Louise" is the prestige cuvee of Pommery - also is available in Rosé - even more expensive. like the Cristal of Roederer ... tastes are personal but in general Pommery is regarded of a higher standard - and a higher price " as Hiedsick Monopole... i hope in decemeber there is still some Pommery left :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5waldos Posted July 6, 2014 #11 Share Posted July 6, 2014 And I hope they stocked up on the Discoverer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alwayscoldmom Posted July 19, 2014 #15 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Not going on the Spirit I am going on the Shadow in August. I am a huge fan of champagne (and sparkling wine) and I have to admit that Pommery is not my favorite (I will still be drinking it :D). This will be my first time on SilverSea is this the only champagne they pour? Tonya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5waldos Posted July 20, 2014 #17 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Also Heidsik Monopole Blue Top, drinkable. Wonder if they stock the orange top-their pink champagne. I actually quite like that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
