Champagne

Champagne is a traditional tipple for times of celebration, like Birthdays, Christenings, retirements and anniversaries. It is a sparkling wine that is produced in the Champagne region of France - hence its name. The region is located in the northern part of France, and it is known for its cool climate and its chalky soils. It is made from white grapes that are grown in the Champagne region, and it is made using the traditional method of Champagne production. Traditionally, Vintage Champagne has the longest ageing potential, and tends to be more complex than younger varieties.

The traditional method of Champagne production involves a second fermentation process that takes place in the bottle, and this second fermentation process is what gives Champagne its signature bubbles. Champagne is typically served as an aperitif or as a drink to accompany a meal, and it is also commonly used in cocktails.

Champagne is available in both Brut and Blanc de Blancs styles, and it can be found in both still and sparkling forms. It is typically drunk chilled, and it should be served in a Champagne flute.
