No, it doesn't fare better in silver-plated goblets. Glass is best because it won’t take on any other flavours.

Either at the bottom or on the side - it doesn’t matter. If you’re serving guests, the idea is to always have the label facing them when pouring the glass.

Yes, but use a champagne stopper. The wine should remain carbonated for 2-3 days after opening.

Serve them separately. Then interchange between sipping the champagne and eating the strawberries. These flavours combine deliciously!
