Wine Yeast vs Champagne Yeast! Which is better?

Wine Yeast vs Champagne Yeast! Which is better? I have railed against EC-1118 and other Champagne yeasts for a long time. Interesting though I've never tested my opinions side by side. Time to put my brew where my mouth is! We're testing K1V-1116 Wine Yeast and EC-1118 Champagne Yeast in an Elderberry Wine to find out which tastes better. They are both high alcohol yeasts with a tolerance of 18%, but I have always felt that EC-1118 and other Champagne yeasts were all about burning up brews rather than making them taste good. Yeah, I know, a lot of folks don't care about flavor, well, too bad, I do. To me, flavor is a big reason to brew for yourself, you can adjust to taste. If all you want is alcohol, well, that's why they make vodka.
