Champagne

Champagne, located in northeastern France, is famous for its sparkling wines made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. The region’s cool climate and chalky soils contribute to the high acidity and minerality of its wines. The unique production method, known as Méthode Champenoise, involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles. This labor-intensive process, combined with the region’s strict regulations, leads to the quality and consistency of Champagne. The wines range from bone-dry to sweet, with flavors of green apple, citrus, and brioche. Champagne’s versatility makes it perfect for celebrations and food pairings, from oysters to fried chicken.
