The art of serving Champagne
- Step one: tilt the bottle slightly, bear in mind to point the bottle safely away from yourself or any other person; then untwist the metal loop to loosen the wire cage
- Step two: remove the wire cage and foil wrapping while keeping a firm grip on the cork
- Step three: while holding on to the cork firmly, gently rotate the bottle (NOT the cork) with your other hand so the cork comes sliding – not popping – out.
