Champagne
The Ultimate Celebration
In the northeastern corner of France lies the renowned Champagne region, home to the world’s most famous sparkling wine. Known for its bubbly elegance and association with luxury celebrations, Champagne produces wines that are complex, fresh, and endlessly refined. With a history steeped in royalty, Champagne continues to be the symbol of achievement, joy, and sophistication.
Grapes & Wine Styles
Champagne is a blend of three primary grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. The region’s climate and soil are perfect for creating wines with a refreshing acidity and complex, yeasty flavors. Champagne is most famous for its method traditionnelle, where the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles.
