Hello all,
I have a couple bottles of Moet & Chandon Petite Liqueur which I've had for about ten years. Is there still a demand for this wonderful yet strange product? There is hardly any information at all on the internet or the guides I've looked at. Thanks, Mike |

I purchased the last two retail bottles in the Western US, that I could find, for a great friend. We drank one and I sent the other home with her. Now, there seems to be none - except the couple that you have. As a note, went last tasted (six years in my cellar, and who knows how long on the shelf in CA) the fizz was long gone, but the flavors had melded nicely and it was still wonderful. This was a year ago. I don't know that I could put a limit on how long it would last, but don't expect that it would get much better. I'd say that you should open a bottle now to share with someone close, and sell me the other bottle for my friend !!!!! It seems that it has been off the Moet list in the US for about the time you have had yours, so I do not expect that you will find more, unless some wine shop in a totally out of the way location still has some. Then, I'd greatly question the storage of it. Hunt PS, if you do wish to get rid of that other offending bottle, I'm visiting my friend in FL in two weeks :-} |

![]() Hey Mike If you still have your Petite Liqueur... ::HISTORY AND TASTING NOTES FOR MOET & CHANDON PETITE LIQUEUR:: :: :: ::A LITTLE HISTORY::: ::The last bottling of Moet Petite Liqueur occurred in 1992. Contrary to popular belief Moet distributed Petite Liqueur worldwide in various livery, Petite Licorelle was another name used throughout Europe. ::::The wine did not sell well overseas, had strong established competition and was not marketed well. :::: :: ::Several theories exist as to why this product sold so convincingly in Australia, one was of course the name, which the Australian distributor, Swift & Moore changed to reflect their other products which were overwhelmingly liqueur based, Another was the aggressive marketing that was embarked upon here by S&M which ensured most of the major hotel groups were able to obtain supplies at massive discounts. This saw top hotels offering Petite Liqueur as a package of some sort in room deals for honeymoons’ and special occasions. :::: :: ::Australians were exposed and seduced in their thousands by this remarkable wine and a legend was born that married special occasions and Moet Petite Liqueur together. :: ::The above model was not pursued overseas and the makers, short-sightedly, thought that the Australian experience was a ‘one off.’ Research was never carried out to find out what was producing the Australian phenomena and it was decided to send all remaining bottles to Australia, where they were relabled as Petite Liqueur. The last supplies ran out suddenly and without fanfare in 1999.:: :: :: ::Thus an amazing little fortified liqueur wine was lost to the world.:: :: :: ::TASTING NOTES::: ::As the fine Bordeaux wine used in Petite Liqueur has been mellowed with old cognac, if it has been cellared correctly, t::::he only difference in this product should be a strengthening of the flavour as the product has matured. The natural sparkle however could be diminished or non existent. :: :: :: ::It would be prudent to::: - ::Serve very chilled.:: - ::Have another chilled bottle of sparkling white wine on ice.:: - ::If necessary augment the Petite Liqueur with the sparkling wine to produce an effervescence (but also to prolong the liqueur on hand and to reduce the flavour strength to its original level):: - : ![]() any):: - ::Even if your Petite is still sparkling, I think extending to reduce the stronger flavour levels of the cognac is, to me, desirable.

![]() Dear Urban Cowboy, Although I am not the person to whom you were speaking, I would love to taste this wonderful nectar once again. I had it a number of times while I was living in Australia, and was bereft when it was discontinued.. If you might be able to help me taste it once again I would be truly grateful!

I would imagine the bottle lost its sparkle, but it might well be good as a nice-tasting drink; you should definitely try it (well chilled) and see how it has held up, you will find out almost immediately whether it is still sound. And the bottle was purchased in the US, hence the NY distributor. Australia has its own merchants. Good luck and let us know. pavane |

I also have a bottle of Moët &Chandon Petite Liquorelle imported from Barcelona. Sealed and unopened.
No idea what sort of price it is worth or whether I should just save it for another 10 years or so. Found whilst clearing out my great grandparents old bungalow a few years ago. Lee |
