I love champagne

Champagne is an emperor of wines; refined, elegant and exclusive, a universal symbol of celebration and the good life. Davy Zyw, the youngest-ever British sommelier at Le Gavroche, the world famous Roux brothers restaurant in London's Mayfair, and a young man who once bought more Italian wine than any other human being on the planet, takes us on an extraordinary tour of the best champagne houses of France. With none of the pretensions of traditional wine writers, Davy offers a no-nonsense but fascinating, informative and highly rewarding guide to the history and production of champagne, its most famous houses and tasting notes on his 50 favourite champagnes.
