Yes and no. There's more than a few comments these days referring to taste, not price - I tried to articulate that in good faith with the Chardonnay three posts up (one of my favorites is $16). In OW forums I frequently praise regular Taittinger & Piper (over Vueve, actually), and in the QR Wine Thread you, myself, and several others have stated that the high-priced Ace of Spades is just not a good Champagne.

Lanson Black is a poor-tasting Champagne for an F lounge. Happy to stand by that.
