To those who are interested I have found my holy grail of yummy, inexpensive champagne! I received an issue of Wine Enthusiast a month ago but never looked at. It happened to be the Best of 2003 issue. They listed a Spanish champagne - Cristalino - as their best value pick for 2003 for champange. The reviewers said that you could barely distinguish the difference between it and more expensive brands. I went to my local Publix which has an extensive wine collection (3 rows) and found one left. It was perfect, not too dry and no aftertaste. All of the guests raved about it and said how good it was...they thought it was very expensive. Good thing for me it was only $8.00.
