there is another "type of champagne" called something like bavo or baco. champagne is stored in dark dark cellars, i think this stuff is very similar to champagne but is not as dry and is stored in a cave in italy or spain. it is available in the US.

Are you thinking of a Cava? Also, champagne is exclusively from the Champagne region in France. Otherwise it's just a sparkling white. Just a little tid-bit there.

btw the champange you recomended for new years the veuve cliquot p was pretty damn good, good call

as far as sweet wines go count me out, i'm all in on the dry stuff, chianti is my go to these days and no one can beat trader joes, 12 bottles for under $60 doesn't get any better

Oh nice! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Veuve Cliquot is so delicious. I don't normally like sparkling wines of any kind for the most part, but I love me some Veuve.
