Champagne and I go a long way back. As a child, I remember that every New Year’s Eve, I was allowed a glass of champagne with a peach immersed in it. To be fair, there was more peach than anything else, but the sense of celebration and the distinct feeling that this drink was something special was instilled in me at an early age. Over the years, I celebrated all occasions, even if the occasion on occasion was that it was a Tuesday, with a glass or two. I started collecting the capsules — the often prettily decorated metal discs that top champagne corks — and even bought a special album to keep them in.
