Things to get out of The way.
Champagne is a wine.Not all wine
is Champagne. Champagne is from
the region of Champagne, France.
Everything else is sparkling wine,
even if its from France. This is not
a bad thing.The three main grapes
of Champagne are Pinot Noir,
Chardonnay & PinotMeunier. In
Champagne there are Maisons
who buy grapes from Growers to
make wine, and Growers who grow
grapes and make wine from their
own vineyards. Champagne is made
byhusbands and wives and fathers
and sons and sisters and brothers
and daughters and mothers. Cham-
pagne takes time to make thats why
its more expensiveitsworth the
wait and worth the price.

WINES YOU CAN DRINK
A LOT OF
Not every occasion calls for a super sophisticated wine, some-
times you want something thats a DRINKER not a THINKER.
This catagory includes a lot of world sparkling and some easy
breezy Champagnes.

FOOD: THINK OYSTERS & SOME SOFT CHEESE!

Wines made from any place outside of Champagne is considered sparkling wine.
Some regions have DOC (Designated Origin Controlled) names like Prosecco in
Valdobiadenne, Italy or Cava in Penedes Spain. Many wine regions focus on mak-
ing sparkling like that of Champagne and the method is called Method Champe-
nois for example in Franciacorta, Italy or Napa, California. Other regions do their
own thing- letting philosophy and production techniques guide their methods,
which can be called Method Traditional or Petillant Naturel.

SPARKLING BY REGION

?
...About 2 Hours North East of Paris

The region of Champagne was once a


large body of water, but then things hap-
pened like global warming and tectonic
shifts and thousands of years of getting
by without iPhones - so its now a
crustaceous formation otherwise known
as CHALK. No joke, some parts of the
vineyards could stock the classrooms of
NYC so when you go visit bring a pair of
Stan Smiths or white Vans high tops
if you dont want to ruin your shoes.

Chalk is what gives champagne its flair.


From the austere minerality to rich fruit
its chalks porous nature which keeps
Champagne structured, acidic, fresh and
hydrated.

Within Champagne there are historically three main regions: The Montagne de Reims
in the north, The Marne Valley in the middle, and the Cote de Blanc in the south. The
Aube & Sezannais in the very south are the underdogs making a name for themselves!
Each region is notorious for certain grapes and styles, but the beauty of Champagne is
that every region has its own surprises.

CHAMPAGNE REGION
06
Grapes: In the region of Champagne there are
three dominant grapes or the Trinity as we like Pinot
to call them. Noir
Thats right, two out of the three grapes are red.
But all the Champagne I drink is clear or
Pinot
golden...mind blown right?more on this later.
Meunier
There are four red-headed step children grapes
that can get into a blend through loopholes:
ARBANE, PETIT MESLIER, PINOT BLANC, Chardonnay
PINOT GRIS.

- Some Champagne is made up of two or more grapes: BLENDS


- Some styles are made from 100% of a grape: BDB or BDN
- Some can be made as a blend of a few harvests: NON VINTAGE (NV)
- Some can be made from only one year: VINTAGE
- NV takes 15 months to age, Vintage takes 3yrs.
- The amount of sugar in a bottle is defined by: Brut Nature 0-3gr.
Extra Brut 0-6gr. Brut 6-12gr. Extra Dry 12-17gr. Dry 17-32gr.
Demi Sec 32-50gr.

French for White of Black- 100% Pinot Noir or Pinot Meunier Due to the very technical press-
ing process of Champagne THE juice from red grapes spends no time with its skins in order to
not leach out any of the tannin or color. ( I told you we would come back to this)

Seriously, rose is not just for sum-
mer time, its not just for girls and
its really good with everything.

This can be a blend of red and white grapes or it can be all red grapes. We are
now of the notion that Rose is coiffing wine made fresh and young, but in
Champagne, Rose is most often the hardest and most time consuming wine to make,
but god dayum theyre good.

FOOD: THINK CHARCUTIER & HARD CHEESE

RED WINE ADDED


Still red wine made from the pinot noir grapes
from Champagne is added to white wine in
order to create a blush before the second
fermentation process.
MACERATION
The skins of the grapes spend some
time with the juice AKA Maceration
during the pressing process.
ROSE SAIGNEE
French For: Blood This is made in the style of
red wine, where some juice is bled off and used
to make effervescent wine. These Champagnes
are structured and tanic and similar to drinking a
sparkling red wine...steak wine aka

OEIL DE PEDRIX
French For: Eye of the Partridge
This is a complicated process and few winemakers
make them because they can be inconsistent, but a
little bit of color from the skins is allowed to mix with
the juice for a short time to create a very pale, glossier/
thinx/every brand pink pink. Not that there is anything
wrong with that...

A lot of these wines need some explanation with passion. They can be thoughtfully
made, Vintage, or very small production. If you know them, you know you cant find
them for less...if you dont know them- youre welcome.

A vintage Champagne must be comprised of 100% Grape juice from that years har-
vest. The purpose of a vintage wine, is to show the range of excellence and terroir of
one single years harvest. A vintage takes a minimum of four years to get from vine-
yard to table. A Tte de Cuve is a wine that a house or grower makes
in what they consider to be an amazing year. Vintage wines have always been a
winemakers pride but plenty have been covered up with marketing and packaging
and slapped with a huge price tag. We do our best to provide vintage wines of
quality first.
