The pre-Christmas supermarket wine price war continues apace with Morrisons announcing that they're knocking 50% off the price of selected champagnes including Piper Heidsieck (£26.29 to £13.14) Heidsieck Monopole Gold Top (£29.99 to £14.99) and the much improved Lanson Black Label (£29.49 to £14.74).
On the face of it it's a good deal - they're all big names which impresses the rellies but there's always a possibility that they've been bought as a job lot and aren't the same quality as the bottles you'd normally find on the shelf. Ideally I'd check one if you're contemplating buying more than one bottle which shouldn't be too much of a hardship though obviously they may all be gone by the time you've done that. (You can apparently only buy three bottles.)
Don't worry too much if you miss out - I think we're going to be awash with champagne offers this Christmas.

Of the list above, what would you say is the best tasting? I know the one I like, but am curious about your thoughts?
ReplyDeleteHaven't tasted the Piper or the Heidieck Gold Top recently so can't really comment. Never used to be a fan of Lanson but it really is much improved.
