Congrats on POTD, my friend. I've only tried champagne once, but you make me want to give it another go with your tasty descriptions ... "caressing the glass" ... very nice!

Many thanks my friend:) The ideal 'drink' is when the glass is caressed both by the drinker and by its contents...mutual satisfaction! ~ All the best. // paul
