CHEZMARYLOU Posted December 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2017 You should be able to get Perrier Jouet by the glass, possibly Tattinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted December 30, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 30, 2017 You should be able to get Perrier Jouet by the glass, possibly Tattinger. Both are available but they are not included in the Premium beverage package, you would pay the difference between the Premium limit of $12 and the cost of a glass of either Perrier Jouet or Tattinger.

bama4cruisin Posted December 30, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Any ideas how much that is ? Sent from my iPhone using Forums On the live review by ChicagoPaul earlier this month, a menu he posted showed the Perrier-Jouet at $26 per glass; Tattinger wasn't listed on that menu.

CHEZMARYLOU Posted December 30, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I have a Luminae wine list from April 2015. Sorry to have posted bad info, the list is slightly off center, kind of on a curve and it is the Prosecco that is $9 per glass. The Perrier Jouet is listed at $22 per glass. I should have known better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatyouknowsays Posted December 31, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Their is no REAL Champagne available on the premium or classic package without a upcharge. Chandon is available by the glass on the premium. Whilst it is not traditional champagne, just sparkling wine it is founded by Moet and Chandon and although bottled in California it is in keeping with the traditional heritage of the french method.

Buffetcutter Posted December 31, 2017 #12 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Real Champagne was included in the premium package on my last cruise in April 2017 with reflection. Montaudon Brut (20 - 25 € in european Shops) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulras Posted May 18, 2018 #15 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I enjoyed many (dozens) glasses of Montaudon in December on Reflection. It's good. Not as good as Veuve or Tat but I enjoyed Sent from my SM-G950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom_boom Posted May 18, 2018 #16 Share Posted May 18, 2018 When on the Millie I had the Montaudon, but found I liked the Chandon much more the the French bubbles. Just like any other wine of beverage, it's all a matter of personal tastes:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Turtles06 Posted May 18, 2018 #17 Share Posted May 18, 2018 For an inexpensive sparkling wine, Domaine Chandon is actually quite good (and probably better than a lot of cheap champagne). And I say that as a lover of champagne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I say that as a lover of champagne. Agree, Domaine Chandon is made by Moët - and yes better than most cheaper champagnes.

waterbug123 Posted May 20, 2018 #20 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Ive seen the premium drinks package includes champagne is it real? buy that i mean french champagne not the cheap mexican/usa stuff that isn't champagne i am guessing you can buy it on board the real french stuff Are you only concerned that it be "real" champagne from France? Because I've had some pretty awful (cheap) French champagnes, and some really decent sparking wines from various places that aren't France. Just because it's French doesn't automatically mean it's high quality OR that it will be to your particular taste. ;) If you specify your preferred "French champagne" labels, I'm sure someone can let you know if it's available by the glass and/or bottle and at what price point on the ship.

Silhouette2017 Posted May 20, 2018 #21 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Now that the price limit for premium package has been raised to $15 hopefully there is some good champagnes included. Celebrity advertizes with champagne when they sell the package so it should be included in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at $15, it's unlikely to be very good champagne. At that price point, a good sparkling wine like Domaine Chandon will likely be better.

B x Posted May 21, 2018 #24 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Does michaels pour better champagnes if requested? All the time and on reflection October 2017 made an awesome Peach Bellini with the house champers and peach snaps. Will be supping a glass or two this time next week.

Will be supping a glass or two this time next week. You poured peach schnapps into expensive Champagne?!? :eek: Generally low-end sparkling wine, not Champagne, is used for Bellinis and Mimosas; the strong flavors of the cheap juice/spirits overwhelms the more delicate qualities that distinguishes good Champagne from run-of-mill sparkling. .
