As you can see from our attractive prices and extensive choice by the glass, half bottle and bottle, we echo Madame Bollinger's views on when to drink champagne:

    "I drink it when I'm happy and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone.
    When I have company I consider it obligatory.
    I trifle with it when I'm not hungry, and drink it when I am.
    Otherwise I never touch it
    .....unless I'm thirsty"
