Concerning the ranking, as I said, it really depends on the day. I really like Krug regular and rose, both will usually be a winner, but Dom vs. PH is not so clear.

I’m afraid so.....
Piper Rare is still flowing in T2SQF but not in T3SQF...... and apparently once the stock is finished in T2SQF that’s .... gone ..... SQT3F has non vintage as a ‘replacement’ for Rare.... go figure.....
SQSKL now has Lanson NV, which I personally prefer over CH NV....

Enjoy the Lanson and then "the widow" will probably provide some consolation once you get to the shores with the greener grass.

At the complete opposite end of the beverage scale, but related concept, was at the SYD F lounge a couple of weeks ago, and Coke has been replaced by Pepsi. 
Apparently lots of complaints and looking at switching back. So it's not just the expensive champagnes that are being switched and causing angst!!

I was sticking with bubbly and Sauvignon blanc though.
My main complaint about the SYD F lounge is the now limited view due to the recently built extension right outside the window. Only way to save the day would be to convert it into a lounge patio.

Louise at MUC and Dom at TPR are probably the top champagne offerings now, at least at *A lounges. ^

Soon to leave for MEL and will report if they have finally stocked the Krug. The anticipation here is really making this wine taste good.
As a note, there was no Krug on the MNL > SIN leg as well, also mentioned by pokfur & demue
