Global Champagne Day - Celebrate!!

As if we need a reason to celebrate - today is Global Champagne Day - so I think it would be unfair not to treat ourselves - don't you? And I have just received an email with some amazing offers from Majestic - :

• Bollinger Special Cuvée £42 now £32
• Taittinger Brut Réserve £38 now £26
• Canard-Duchêne Brut £26 to £18

I think it is time to go shop!!

Enjoy.

I am doing a blind tasting tonight - hope you will drop back to see if you can determine what the wine I taste is......

Brown Brothers Brut NV King Valley, Victoria

Brown Brothers Brut NV Sparkling wine from the Malawa vineyard in the  King Valley, Victoria. It has aromas reminiscant of apricot, grapefruit and shortbread biscuits, it has fresh zesty acidity and quite a silky texture though the bubbles were large and fierce, flavours of apricot and apple come through on the palate, the length is quite short with a biscuity finish which is pleasant.
It is available from Slurp at a cost of £14.85.
