Champagne

[nasus2]

What champagne is offered on the premium package? Iv always opted for montedon ( sorry spelling) but I understand that is. No longer available  . I’m no expert I just like champagne

Nicolas Feuillatte was our "go to" Champagne on Silhouette back in August.

Cattier is was the replacement for Montaudon when we were on the Edge last month.

We liked it better.

We had Metropole, made by Heisdick (sp), on Equinox in  Oct.

Really?  I love that stuff.  (I assume it was the Blue Top.)  I hope they have it on the Silhouette next month!

 

(Just fyi, Heidsieck.  😉)

Does anybody have an up-to-date wine/champagne list. I was on Equinox in Sept and did not see Metropole.

I was so excited when I first saw@39august’s post by the prospect of drinking this on Celebrity that my eyes read right past “Metropole.”  It’s called “Monopole.”  😊

[39august]

Yes, it was the Blue Top.

OP asked about the premium package, but if you want to drink in your cabin, there are several choices of champagne in the sail away gift part of the website.  I may get the Veuve Clicquot myself.  Not sure about next time because I will be pretty close to the Sunset Bar.

 We had this on Edge in July and Nov on Summit.   On Summit in the MDR they said they only got 2 bottles per night.   One night another sommelier said they were out and keep trying to give me Chandon.  Regular sommelier came by with Cattier a few minutes later.

 

Had Monopole on Equinox but it was sweeter.   I prefer the Montaudon and Cattier more.

Is that California Chandon $10/bottle or Moet $50/bottle?

[wrk2cruise]

43.99 at Total Wine.   But yes California Sparkling wine.

FYI It was not Monopole,  a California wine. It was indeed Metropole champagne made in France.

Heidsieck Monopole is not a California wine, it is champagne— meaning from France. (Sorry it wasn’t on board.) 

[wrk2cruise]

The Matre'd gave me a bottle due to an issue we had in the dining room.  I brought it home.   This is from Equinox in September.

Does anyone know if they server sparking wine in the classic package? What type of brands? I assume it won't be a champagne

I've seen Zonin prosecco on some lists.  Can anyone confirm?

[sixpackeddie]

Love this one. I think it’s premium package, much better then the Channdon.

 

[wrk2cruise]

Is Montaudon back??  It was on the premium package prior to covid but hasn't been seen since the restart.  Cattier was a pretty good replacement but Montaudon was my favorite.   What ship?

 

I did 38 days on Connie in April/May and not a drop of French Champagne to be had on the premium package.  Spoke with Cellar Master multiple times and all I got was sorry.

We haven’t seen Montaudon since the restart.  The F & B manager told us they no longer had a contract for Montaudon.  Cattier was good while it lasted but didn’t see it on our cruise in a May.
