		<description><![CDATA[At least I had some decent grog to ease the pain&#8230; The first four wines are pairs of the regular and non-dosage cuvées from two different Champagne producers &#8211; found myself preferring the unsweetened version on each occasion.

		<description><![CDATA[Segura Viudas Brut Reserva NV (£8.99 Oddbins) Earthy lemon aromas, quite pleasant toasty notes, but then the finish is just too sweet and a little flabby. OK, but lacks crispness. C+ Raventós i Blanc L’Hereu Brut Reserva 2007 (£14.99 Hamilton Yorke, Handford, Martinez, Davy’s Wine Shop, The Vineyard, SWIG) Dry, crisp, serious and seriously good [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bisol ‘Cartizze’ Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore 2008, Veneto, Italy (£22.99 Bibendum) Starts off lush and peachy, but then the minerally restraint kicks, adding a drier, more serious, clay-like edge and keeping you coming back for more. S- Cono Sur Brut NV, Bío-Bío, Chile (£9.99 Morrisons, Oddbins, Tesco.com) Toasty sweet’n’sour Riesling character comes through strongly on [...]]]></description>

However, we&#8217;ve had a wonderful day together, including a long lie-in, a trip to IKEA (without which no Valentine&#8217;s Day is complete), a cuddle at the cinema (Slumdog Millionaire &#8211; Anil Kapoor is the Indian Michel Rolland) and a slap-up meal of rib-eye, dauphinoise [...]]]></description>
