Amazon de Palmer is the worst prestige cuvee I have tried by miles compared to the others. A clarification it’s not undrinkable but man was it underwhelming

Armand de Brignac Ace of spade? Absolute mid to dog shit champagne for stupid money just to impress in a club

SLWC – Artemis, Fay, Chillies Valley, all just taste off to me. I know these are intended to be great wines and have a large following, just not vibing with me.
Same with Shafer Hillside select, relentless. 1.5 and td9. I want to like these but, yet to enjoy one…. just tastes average to me.

Tignanello. I had a 2014 that was just.. ok. One of my most underwhelming wine experiences to date.

Spring Mountain Elivette back when they were trying to charge $300 for it.
(Yes this is a shit post but I actually think it sorta fits haha)
Henschke Hill of Grace has been super disappointing to me.
Opus One. Never lives up to it price point

Perhaps unpopular opinion but nowadays I’d class *Tignanello* as expensive and taste mid.
When the wine was €75-90 it was a good P/Q. But seen retail now even as high as €200 (but €150ish mid point)
For that price the wine is expensive and tastes mid.
A lot of Dom Pérignon that I’ve had.
