    I bought a few bottles of this to see the new year in and everyone thought it was lovely. Sweet and light, definitely worth £1 a bottle. Thanks OP, may have to get another few bottles for my girly night next weekend!

    Stupid me. Can you believe this? I put one of these bottle in the freezer

    to cool it down quickly. Forgot all about it. This morning I remembered,:eek:

    but..

    too late of course. The bottle had burst leaving frozen plonk mixed with

    shards of broken glass! At least the bottle only cost a quid; still I rather

    have drunk it!:(

    Yesterday I bought another 28 bottles of 'poor man's champagne'.:j
    I only had 2 bottles left of the quantity I bought in March so in the nick of time.

    I got some in Camden, London. There was quite a lot and I've been in twice in a few weeks and it was still there.

    I haven't tried 'Chaumet Premium Brut' but I do love sparkly, this sparkly is only 5.5% alc vol so if you want a little more more alcohol add a shot (or 2) of peach archers and make a potent Bellini they are gorgeous and I'm sure you can buy cheap peach schnapps it doesn't have to be the Archers brand. _party_
