Buy champagne
Champagne at a bargain price! We popped the corks and made the taste test for you. In champagne duel: Bottles under 13 euros.
If you pour good champagne into the glass, the carbon dioxide pearls rise fine and small and rise up like a string. The foam bubbles briefly before settling slowly. He smells fresh, a little yeasty. Tastes tender, never too intense or heavy.
Sounds good - but is too expensive? Because of: Who wants to buy good champagne, can do so in the discount store or supermarket. And for a bargain price! We popped the corks and made the taste test for you.
By the way, did you know ...
... that champagne is served cooler than white wine? Six to nine degrees is the ideal drinking temperature, then he pearls really well! A white wine may also have around twelve degrees (the more grape, the warmer).
... that only the cork is turned when opening? Hold the bottle at a slight angle, approximately at a 45-degree angle. Once the cork is out, keep your thumb on the opening - you should not hear more than a "pffffft".
... that there is only one champagne to drink on ice? This always works with champagne, especially in the summer. But with champagne, the ice belongs only in the cooler. Except for one variety: The "Moët & Chandon Ice Impérial" (about 50 Euro) was specially composed for it.
... that you drink champagne today from white wine glasses? Exactly, you can see that now often. Otherwise flutes or tulips are typical. Not so much anymore: flat bowls. Important: The glasses must be sparkling clean, otherwise the pearls and the foam will be destroyed.
... that champagne is sensitive? Do not leave opened bottles too hard, it will foam quickly. And always with a clip closure, the silver spoon brings nothing.
