Most wines, including champagne, do NOT improve with age. Wines are typically meant to be drank within a year of two of bottling. However, some Chamagnes will improve with age. Prestige cuvees having a long aging potential (as long as 30 years). If you want to save a wine for a long time before drinking, you must carefully select the champagne.
You bet your sweet keester it does. I'm about to pop a 1971 Dom Perignon and I'm reciting all my prayers from my painful memories of catholic school upbringing right now. Can I get a Hail Mary and 2 Our Fathers from the congregation please?
yes it can go bad
There is no expiration date for wines and champagnes.
Ordinary wine can turn into vinegar under the wrong conditions, although if you drink it it won't harm you. I see no reason why this wouldn't hold true for champagne or sparkling wine.
Sparkling wine doesn't improve with age but, if stored in a cool dark place, it will not go bad
In ideal cellar conditions (around 50F), some Champagnes will last for twenty or thirty years or more. It can certainly go bad though, especially after it has been opened.
Unopened champagne should not go bad and it should be refrigerated.
it will become "corked" but it takes years
Yes, Champagne can go off.

Champagne is a solution. When bubbles come off, they are carbon dioxide gas coming out of solution, so the bubbling champagne is a solution with bubbles of gas in it. The champagne is still a solution, but the bubbles are not part of it any more.
Because it is under pressure.

The purpose of champagne delivery seems to be one of convenience. Not having to go to the liquor store to purchase the product is easier for some so they have it delivered.

Not sure if there WAS a Jeanne Champagne, but I AM Jeanne Champagne and I am not a wine or a champagne drink, just a person living in Jersey.
The popping of champagne corks at weddings originated from the time of Napoleon. Under Napoleon's command, the Hussars, a type of Hungarian light cavalry, celebrated victories by swinging their swords, and in doing so, cleanly slicing off the champagne corks. There is also a legend that states that the Hussars would ride at full gallop to one of the ladies holding up a bottle of champagne, and slice off the cork with one swipe of their swords. Note: Today, champagne bottles are beheaded with a specially made sabre/sword.
La champagne means "the champagne" (wine).
