REGION
Champagne
France
Champagne is not only the wine of great celebrations, it is also a region unlike any other in the world, in northeast France. With its limestone slopes and a climate cooler than any other French wine region, it gives wines of inimitable finesse.
The three signature grapes (Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay) thrive here despite the harsh climate, thanks to chalky soils that return warmth and minerality. Skilfully blended, they create the most famous of all sparkling wines: Champagne AOC, a symbol of elegance and craft.
Recommended for you:
An elegant and taut sparkling wine, very chalky. I love its finesse and the saline finish that calls for oysters.
