Champagne showers - 1st November 2012

A fine day in the office
Champagne tasting at the office today. Divine. I adore any day that features Moët and some Dom Perignon. I am loving my new job right now. Some interest facts learned today include:

  • Moet is a Dutch family name, which is why the t is pronounced (as opposed to the how it would be if the name were French)
  • Veuve means widow in French, so you should refer to the champagne name as Clicquot, not Veuve if you are shortening it
  • Dom Perignon 2003 vintage is just lovely
