What you must never forget : Champagne is a refined, elegant, delicate drink. In principle, you never get drunk with it but you mustn't over do it. Just because there is enough for two more glasses in the bottle, it's not absolutely necessary to finish it. Excess is always bad judgment. You will see, champagne is still good the following day.
Champagne, it's synonymous with celebration, good company and pleasure. Don't forget it.
