English Sparkling Wine or Champagne?

[Thomas]

Jas,

I don't think England produces enough to send across the pond to us. Even if it did make it here, I suspect the promotion budget that would be required to get Americans to even show interest would be more than the cost of wine production.

We can't even get New Yorkers to drink New York wine. Not willupstate--he does his share.

Glad to see you do not refer to British sparkling wine as Champagne, the way some American producers still doggedly do.

Hey, I'll be submitting an article to Decanter soon--don't know when they will print it, or if. It's their choice, but they did commission it. It's about niche wine retailing in NY City.
