That may sound nice, but it was horrible, so bad in fact that it was undrinkable, well, almost undrinkable - but we persevered.
Why didn't we chuck the Champagne down the sink? For one very good reason, we had no red wine in the house. Hahaha!
Thankfully we hadn't spent our hard earned money on this bottle of Louis Dornier et Fils Brut Champagne NV, it was a freebie sent to Mr.R.
We're all about being grateful, but this was not a gift that naturally induces gratitude.
This Champagne sells on Red Letter for fifty quid. Yep, I said £50!
It sells for about a tenner in the shops. But even at £10 it's way overpriced, I'd say 10 pence would be a more suitable price, 10p isn't a bad price because you could tip the Champagne down the sink and then use the empty bottle as a candle holder. Voila!
From the label -
Louis Dornier is a classic Champagne using the three traditional grape varieties, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay grown in the chalky soil of the Champagne region of Northern France.
Aged for a minimum of two years in the bottle in deep underground caves during which time the wine develops a fine sparkle or "mousse" and a delicious taste, this wine should be served lightly chilled. Open with care. 12%vol.
Have you been unfortunate enough to have tasted Louis Dornier et Fils Brut Champagne NV?
Horrible isn't it?
