Everytime I see one of those ads for Korbel un-Champagne claiming to be the "official Champagne of the millenium celebration" I have to restrain myself from throwing a bottle of ACTUAL Champagne (always handy at Casa Roberto!) through the TV!

Regardless of the quality, value of lack therof with this winery, no thinking person should subsidize a company whose marketing people are plainly preying on the insecurities of non wine sophisticated people with their rediculous ads where the world comes to an end because "The Champagne is not Korbel" when in fact KORBEL IS NOT CHAMPAGE! When you also consider the costs (to the consumer) of the massive advertizing budgets
dedicated to this fraud the product cannot be any sort of value either, being easily surpassed by sparklers from the Loire Valley, Italy and even Tribaut in California at better pricing.

Cheers, Roberto
