Champagne is made using the historic méthode champenoise, in which a secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle. This labor-intensive process gives champagne its characteristic effervescence and long-lasting bubbles when poured into a glass. Specific grape varieties are used for champagne production, with the main ones being Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay.
Champagne comes in a wide range of flavors and levels of dryness—from dry Extra Brut and Brut, to semi-dry Extra Sec and Sec, and sweet Demi-Sec and Doux. Every champagne has an ideal food pairing, from fruits and cheeses to caviar and desserts.
A special type of champagne is the vintage champagne, which is blended exclusively from base wines of the same year. This requires an exceptionally rich and diverse grape harvest, which does not occur every year. That is why vintage champagnes are so rare and distinctive.
