She also has a website www.foodlandwinematching.co.uk. which she admits, all-too-regularly reports on subline combinations of fizz and food.

1.0 out of 5 stars Champagne Lite, February 14, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Champagne and Sparkling Wine: Discovering Exploring Enjoying (Hardcover)
I had hoped that this may be a useful book to add to my growing collection of champagne books, particularly for suggestions in matching various styles of champagne to food. However, this is a condensed coffee-table book that provides some very basic facts but lacks substance. If you are wanting to learn more about champagne and would prefer some detail, I would recommend 'Champagne for Dummies' by Ed McCarthy.
