Champagne Prices (bottles)

[njguy_south]

Hi. Those onboard or recently sailed, what are the prices for Champagne (bottles)? Do they still have Veuve Clicquot?

[Jack E Dawson]

Veuve Clicquot is $85 per bottle

Attached is the full wine list.CU_wine_list.pdf

Hopefully I've done this properly.

Oops, that wasn't the most current list.

I think this is more up to date.

It is brilliant to have a copy of this available. Would it be possible to keep it at the top of the page?

We used to have the wine list as a sticky but it only works if it's current. Does anyone know the date of the one posted ?

There's the rub. A couple of the wines we had two weeks ago are slightly dearer than quoted, e.g. Gewürztraminer $48 rather than $45.

I have the newer copy as being September 2018. I have a copy that was supposed to be 2020 with some variation to the wines but it is not priced.

Just taken from the Cunard website but again not priced. https://www.cunard.com/content/dam/cunard/marketing-assets/pdf/life-on-board/drinks-packages/QM2_Wine_List.pdf

Same here. I have a copy of "Cunard_Wine_list.pdf" dated September 7, 2018. It appears to be identical to the attachment above. I downloaded it from this old thread which I think used to be a sticky on this forum.

I just hope the 1840 Ferreira Port hasn't gone up.

WOW! Might be a case of BYO Clicquot.....in upstate NY we can regularly get it for between 50-65 a bottle. I'd be happy to carry a little  onboard for that price.

Our local shop has it at €36.85. With loyalty discounts we get a little over 20% off that so under €30.

Can't be bothered carrying it though, we'll settle for Cava or Prosecco.

Corkage fee in bars/rest. on Cunard is now $25?

I've enjoyed this topic and wanted to make a segue into another champagne question that I have been wondering about. Does anyone have any inside into about why Cunard switched from Veuve to Laurent Perrier as their main champagne brand a few years ago?  Personally I still prefer Veuve.  Perhaps this  topic has been covered before but I have only joined the board this year. Does anyone know?

No doubt that Laurent paid more money and gave better prices on supply. Everything that happens these days is all about profit.

For many years it was Perrier Jouet.

 

We got The Widow last year on QE.
