Champagne–What to Buy?
We are often asked what type of champagne to buy for celebratory occasions. Here are four brands recommended by our favorite food publication–Bon Appetit:
* Lanson NV “Black Label” Brut–Great as an aperitif. $35
* Chartogne-Taillet Cuvee Sainte-Anne Brut–a terrific dinner wine that has traces of apples. $40
* Roger Coulon NV Grande Tradition Premier Cru Brut–dark fruit tones with a mineral bite. $49
* Pol Roger 2000 Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill Brut–vintage dated that will age well–for a splurge! $250
