A tariff on champagne would mostly hit the rich so go for it hahaha

[–] GoatTnder@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (9 children)

It would hit plenty of us working class schmucks too. I don't usually get to treat myself to a bottle, but it's nice for a special occasion to get actual champagne over prosecco. I guess this is the end of that.

Prosecco is Italian, so I assume would be covered too?

[–] GoatTnder@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

True. But decent bottles of prosecco start at like $8, and decent champagne starts at like $40.

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Is that so? A good champagne is 20-30 Euros in Germany

[–] GoatTnder@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Transport from France to Germany is a lot cheaper than from France to USA. But I don't know why Italian prosecco is so much cheaper. Same issue with bordeaux vs. (say) tuscan.

Of course it does it's French and overpriced. Buy Rotkäppchen.

[–] blackris@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Meh. Freixenet is the way to go. But I am on your side with champagne being overpriced. Same shit, fancy name.

Geez guys, there's good Sekt, so please do not promote that awful and not even cheap stuff
