Ruinart BdB probably 60 EUR … there are good options that are not Louise pricing.
They say they are buying what they can within the considerable limitations of the budget LH provides, the Staff are as disappointed as we are that Louise is gone, they do take a pride in their lounge and appreciated how much the Louise was liked, they always offered much cheaper Champagne from small houses, which helped because not all guests were aware of the difference
Certainly, they will not share details of the budget, for sure it would only confirm our worst fears about scrooge at LH.
