Lots Of Bubbles And Bang For Your Buck

The average 750 ml bottle of French Champagne contains approximately 49 million bubbles, but who’s counting! Sales of sparkling wine, especially Champagne, continue to clip along at a fast pace. Is it the whole uncorking procedure? Remove the capsule, unwind the wire hood, gently manoeuver the cork out, with a small pop, PLEASE. Be gentle, to avoid expelling the precious liquid and bubbles captured inside. While still wines wait well behaved in the glass until they are consumed, one cannot but be mesmerized by the steady, rising stream of pin point bubbles in a sparkling wine. Then, there’s the gentle ping as one glass touches the other followed by a mandatory toast. Nothing like the tingling and tickling on the tongue as the bubbles bounce around making contact with the palate’s nerve receptors. Drink solo to celebrate any special occasion, or pair with food. Almost anything goes with Champagne – oysters, caviar, and any other seafood or lighter dishes including Asian or Indian. Now that we have captured your interest in Champagne in general, may we recommend one of the LCBO’s top sellers available year round. Taittinger is one of Champagne’s most respected brands. And, until January 5, consumers may enjoy savings of $6 for each bottle purchased of their Brut Réserve. Whether for your own enjoyment or gift giving this holiday season, go for it.
