Salmon caught, smoked, vacuumed packed, and shipped to us by my Uncle Denny was our offering at a little celebration last night. Our hosts, in their turn, put out a delic cheese plate and popped open a magnum of Roederer Estate L’Hermitage 1996 sparkling. Your assignment: buy a bottle and a magnum of the exact same champagne (same brand, same year, same everything except size). Taste them side by side. Be floored by the difference and vow to drink only champagne by the magnum from now on.
