My husband wants to buy champagne for tonight. I really do not have alot of knowledge on this. Do anyone know a good bottle I could buy for a reasonable price? Thank for your help!!!

Good question and you are absolutely correct with the price vs. quality or "pleasure factor" of a bottle of champagne. Dom Perignon is sooooooooooo over rated and not worth the money that people spend on it. For a nice bottle under $40 I would suggest a bottle Tattinger Brut Reserve or Demi Sec. Both are a fine French Champagne choice with very fine ( tiny) bubbles and subtle flavors of fresh fruit. The Brut Reserve has a hint of honey where as the Demi Sec is a little deeper in color and slightly bolder taste. If you want to stay under $20, I would stick with a nice bottle of Korbel. They are from California and have a nice selection of decent champagnes that will not break your bank! Cheers and Happy New Year!!!!

Korbel is not expensive but usually pretty good. Personally I like Ballatore Spumante -- not a "Champagne" but a Sparkling Wine in the style of Italian Spumantes but made in California.
Happy New Year!

Ballatore 100% the best champagne Ive ever tasted.
Its a sweet Champagne not dry. We had it at my wedding..Everybody loved it so much we ran out.
It runs $4.99-$5.99 a bottle. I LOVE IT!

I personally like Ballatore Asti Spumante. It's not quite a champagne, but more of a sparkling wine. I get it every holiday.

moet and chandon is good and a resonable price. you can get it for about 30 dollars a lot of places.
