Top Tips:

1. Temperature is key! Store your champagne around 42-45F so that you can serve it between 45-50F (6-8C).
2. Glassware is important! If you don't have a tulip glass, use a white wine glass. Coupes and Flutes are not the best glass when enjoying Champagne.
3. Champagne pairs well with almost any food!
4. Don't age your wine - it's already at the perfect age.
5. Be careful when opening your wine that the cork doesn't explode and hurt you or someone else.
6. When shopping, plan to spend at least $60-$70+ and decide what sweetness level you want and if you are looking to try a larger house or a small grower/ producer.
