Here I am commenting on my favourite drink of all, champagne. I had to vote for "brut", although by champagne rules it's not VERY DRY. It's only dry and can have up to 15 grams of sugar per liter. The EXTRA BRUT can only have up to 6 grams of sugar per liter. I like both - the pinot styled brut by Louis Roederer, Gosset, Perrier Jouet or Drappier, I also love the Larmandier-Bernier Terre De Vertus Non Dosage, which contains absolutely no sugar! It's a real razor shaped champagne, excellent with oysters. Oh, Richard Juhlin is coming to Prague in November with a big champagne tasting session, I can't wait!

Hmm, I'm the oddball I guess - I'm a big fan of nice, sweet champagnes. I don't care for brut champagne at all.

I'm with the others, the drier the better.

I like all champagne. I never met a champagne I didn't like.

Depends upon the origin of the bubbles. Sometimes Brut for French Champagne from Epernay, but the Blanquette de Limoge I enjoy a bit more Demi-Sec. And for a real special evening - with something from Reams - then a rare bottle of Brut Savage is called for!
