Marv, we have all you want and we are here in LA (WINE EXPO, 2933 Santa Monica Blvd in Sant a Monica) BUT I would strongly advise you that you could buy THREE bottles of comparable Champagne for the same money (and we have over two hundred fifty choices). Now that "Kris" has become the official Champagne of Hip Hop Nation the price is completely out of control. The producers of this wine have also raided their cellars to capitalize on this market and are at the legal minimum for aging now (five years from the vintage when it used to be more like twelve and you can really taste the difference). I fully expect to see Non Vintage releases (called "Kris", natch, and with TV commercials featuring Mary K Blige and Puffy) before too long.

Roberto

BTW, that is Louis Roederer Cristal Champagne, not Crystal which is what you drink Champagne from.

Don't get me wrong, I love good groove music and if a case of "Kris" will get J-Lo in my bed AND it represented an infinitessimal part of my vast wealth (yeah, right!) I would go for it. BUT, come on down (we are open 10-9 every day and 11-7 on Sundays and we'll show you some thinking person's options.
