never had wine; please help

Hello again New2this.
On second thoughts it may be best for you to stay away from Champagne and other sparkling wines at this stage. Opening a bottle of such can be very tricky, if not downright dangerous, for the novice. There is a tremendous amount of pressure inside the bottle just waiting to fire the cork out. Try being romantic after being slammed in an eye by a Champagne cork!.
Actually, I think the best course of action would be for you to do as Tandkvd suggests - go visit a good wine shop.
Good luck. [img]http://wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] T.
