HOW LONG CHAMPAGNE???

Pat__3

Can anyone tell me how long can you keep champagne.

I bought 2 bottles in 1986 good quality were £11-something at the time..Moet & Chandon Premeire, they have been kept in the dark.

Anyone know anything ???


Thank You in advance ;D ;D

Champagne - 6-12 months for non-vintage; 2-3 years for vintage.

Its well out of date, but don't worry Judi and I will take it off your hands as we have found a good way to recycle it. Just tell us which Park bench you want us to meet you at as i'll be the one with the bottle of Pimms in a brown paper bag ;D What do you say Judi 50/50

:)Non-vintage champagne can be kept for up to 10 years in a cool dark place , but you would need an iron will to leave it alone for that long :-X

MA

That's going to upset Cos!! ::) ;D
