ESPACIAL FRATURES of this Poro CHAMPAGNE are
1ST. Its entire freedom from the usual Fur vandy, ek consequently it is fresher, cleaner, and more wholesome than the LIQUEURED Champagnes. END-Its DELICACY, due to the frat prossings only of the grapes being used: The later pressings make the wine roagh and cosise, and necessitats the use of liqhou",
30-T NATURAL DRYNESS, which
is not aggressive, rucking it more up patizing than satisfying. 4r.-No liqueur being added, the process of re-corking is very rapidly effected, so avoiding the large loss of carbonic seid gas the most valuable property of Champagne.
Champagne should always be drunk cold; but to half froene a light delicate wine by polting it in to an ice-pail for the best part of an hour, is to destroy all its no vinous properties.
In formar years, when heavily Liqueured Champagnes were alone obtainable, a good freezing was necessary to hide the nauseous sweetness of a ton per cont. dose of sugar- caudy and alcohol; but conramers now
demand a wine free from un-natural sweet. ness or alcobola sparkling vintage which can be taken freely at luncheon or dinner, and which will improve, rather than destroy,
the epputate.
