Sparkling wine is presenting champagne with more and more of a challenge. If price is no object, Selfridges has a very good champagne range but for value plus quality, Lea & Sandeman (020 7244 0522) is difficult to beat. It can offer even better prices than those below for orders of six bottles or more. Vine Trail (0117 921 1770) specialises in the glory of champagnes from small growers rather than big houses.
雖說香檳(Champagne)在人們心目中地位崇高,但汽酒(Sparkling wine)已經開始撼動它的地位。塞爾福里奇百貨公司(Selfridges)的香檳產品琳琅滿目,是個購買的好地方;說到產品的性價比,雷與桑德曼(Lea & Sandeman)(聯繫方式:020 7244 0522)的地位則無可替代,因爲這裏的價格常常比在別處一次性購買六瓶甚至以上數量更加實惠;藤蔓(Vine Trail)(聯繫方式:0117 921 1770)的著重點與衆不同,選擇的品牌都來自於小型種植農而非大型酒廠。
