*Helas; vive la difference...* There is a passably good domestic champagne, however. The Gruet family from Champagne searched all over the US some years back for a place to plant their New World vineyards and discovered the PERFECT terroir for growing champagne grapes - in New Mexico! The grapes grow on the banks of the Rio Grande a couple hundred miles south of Albuquerque near Elephant Butte. Great taste, small bubbles and fermented IN THE BOTTLE. Quite a bargain at under $15/bottle.
