Received this as a gift a few years ago and since family isn’t over I tried the Tawny Port from this instead of opening a full bottle. It will be interesting to try them all.

Maynards is a pretty new brand to the port world and a fantastic one at that.  They are best brand going for quality to price!

Awesome gift; never seen that before!

Trying the Veuve Demi-Sec for the first time tonight. Not sure if I like it better than the yellow label, but damn it’s good!

Demi-Sec is the style of an older era in Champagne.  Try for 40+ year old Dom and it's more to that style.  You may enjoy the Demi-Sec in a Champagne Coupe instead.  I personally would rather have the Demi-Sec than the Yellow Label, but I also think the Yellow Label is overpriced crap.  Step above Moet White Star, but that's about as good as that one gets...

I’m just seeing this!! Sorry for the late reply.  Thanks for the advice. Any other advice for a champagne beginner? Any particular houses, etc.?

We went with the yellow label tonight. Not as sweet for sure. Learning about the glasses too. Didn’t realize champagne was so complex. Pretty cool.
