Champagne
We love a quotation here at Whisk and are also particularly partial to a flute of fantastic fizz – there is something intensely satisfying about seeing the bubbles rise in a chilled glass of golden Champagne and taking that first magical sip. So we thought we’d combine the two and have come up with a list of our top 15 quotes about Champagne for you to enjoy – preferably with a glass of something bubbly in hand.

Finally, our favourite quote about Champagne was uttered from Lily Bollinger of the famous Champagne family and seems to sum up everything we feel about those beautiful bubbles:
"I only drink Champagne when I'm happy, and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company, I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I am not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it - unless I'm thirsty" Lily Bollinger
We hope you enjoyed these famous quotes, now, why not enjoy sipping on a glass, or enjoy giving a bobble as a gift?
