Question: I have opened a bottle of champagne that is so dry we cant drink it!?
What can I use it for, it's such a waste to throw it away!. How long could I keep it if I wanted to put it in a meat dish during the week!?
Thanks all!Www@FoodAQ@Com

failing that - bathe in it! If you are intimate with your drinking buddy it could be a lot of fun!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Champagne mixed with orange juice or pineapple juice is an excellent beverage to serve during brunch!.
"Most Champagnes are made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, for example 60%/40%!. Blanc de blanc (white of white) Champagnes are made from 100% Chardonnay!. Possibly the most exquisite, and definitely the most expensive of these is grown in a single Premier cru vineyard in Le Mesnil-Sur-Oger for Salon!. Blanc de noir (white of black) Champagne is pressed from 100% Pinot Noir or black grapes, using a special quick-pressing, so that the black colour of the skin does not stain the vin de presse (pressed grape juice)!.

Champagne is typically light in color even if it is produced with red grapes, because the juice is extracted from the grapes using a gentle process that minimizes the amount of time the juice spends in contact with the skins, which is what gives red wine its colour!. Rosé wines are produced throughout France by leaving the clear juice of black grapes to macerate on its skins for a brief time!. Rosé Champagne is notable as it is the only wine that allows the production of Rosé by the addition a small amount of red wine during blending!. This ensures a predictable and reproducible colour, allowing a constant Rosé colour from year-to-year!. The amount of sugar (dosage) added after the second fermentation and aging also varies"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
