anyone know there champagne & wines
 
ive been given a bottle of pink champaign by a friend who has told me that it is a expensive one but ive never heared of it. its called Leander Brut..

anyone any the wiser?

GC8 06 January 2009 10:56 PM

Champaign or champagne? Champaign will be rubbish... ;)

Timwinner 06 January 2009 11:11 PM

I have a feeling it retails at about 35 - 45 a bottle, But I might have it mixed up with something else.
Thats a perfectly respectable price for champagne (champaign). I normally get black label if its a friends over type night, Thats about £20 a bottle and its nice enough stuff.

Hope that helps in some way.

champagne... its french according to the bottle

GC8 06 January 2009 11:14 PM

It has to be: Champagne is region in France. Anything else is sparkling wine.

Decisions , decisions...
A decent bottle of Cava for a tenner, or industrial grade champagne at £25?

Cava = Spanish champagne.

Leander Brut Rosé is about seven quid a bottle in Tesco when it's not on offer, unless i'm very much mistaken. It's ok in moderation, but quite sharp. Nothing to do with Champagne at all.

I can't believe you didn't pick up on the mistake in the thread title! Shame on you. :thumb:

Shouldn't that be 'Spanish sparkling wine'?

what mistake? apart from my spelling that is

Gear Head 07 January 2009 12:21 PM

'There'. :thumb:

Matteeboy 07 January 2009 12:21 PM

Should be "Anyone know THEIR champagne and wines "

powerwrx 07 January 2009 12:22 PM

fair point.. like i said though 'apart from my spelling'

dpb 07 January 2009 12:23 PM

There,there :D

powerwrx 07 January 2009 12:25 PM

still non the wiser though... £35 - £40 champagne or £7 sparkling wine from tesco

TelBoy 07 January 2009 12:29 PM

Leander is a decent substitute, if you like dry Champagne. Rosé Champagne is another thing altogether; i'm personally not a fan and therefore struggle with Leander's "version". But try it - if you like it you'll save £10+ on the real thing.

Dr.No 07 January 2009 04:20 PM

Can't find anything called Leander - but does it look like this?

Lindauer Brut - Tesco Wine Club

If so, it's about £8 a bottle from Tescos....
