sorry I am just being flippant. vintage is the really really expensive stuff, for drinking whem someone else is paying.

I don't really think that Champers and mince pies really goes

For mince pies you would be best with a desert wine - possibly Brown Brothers Orange Muscat, which is very Christmassy!

yes agree re the mince pies/champagne juxtaposition
a big nono I erckon, taste wise
kir royale is one part creme de cassis to five parts champagne.
god I could kill for one right now
