I LOVE that James Bond quote - I actually have that sound bite on my computer at start-up!

My fav. champagne is Veuve Cliquot La Grande Dame (it's been years since I've been in French clas so my spelling is prob. off). I also like Dom Perignon. There's a really good lower-price champagne called Cafe De Paris. Don't know if it's avail. in the U.S. but my dad, who is totally a wine snob, loves serving it to his wine snob friends as they can't tell the difference btwn it and many of the more expensive bottles. Retails for $9.45 CAD but compares to a higher price bottle.

I also love wine - definitely my father's daughter. My BF an I spent a long wekend at Niagara on the Lake and I'm now really into Canadian wines. My fav. white is Laily Vidal 2002 - very fruity nose, clean finish. My fav. red is Rief Estates Cabernet-Merlot 2002. It has a very round body and a smooth finish, defintely good if you're not a fan of the red wine tannins.

Lindemans Bin 65 chardonnay is a household staple. Masi Soave is also very nice...

My. all time faves are sauternnes and ice wine. Yum. Pellitieri makes a fantastic ice wine as does Inniskillin. SO good with a little sweet and cheese course
