Question 1

What is a Blanc de Blancs Champagne?

Accepted Answer

A Blanc de Blancs Champagne is a white sparkling wine made exclusively from white grape varieties, primarily Chardonnay. The clear juice of these grapes produces a pale, refined Champagne known for its crisp, elegant character. This Champagne is celebrated for its delicate, fresh flavor profile with notes of citrus, brioche, and white flowers, offering a lighter body and finesse compared to the richer, fuller-bodied Blanc de Noirs.

Question 2

What is the Traditional Method ?

Accepted Answer

Champagne is made using the Traditional Method (Méthode Champenoise), where a second fermentation takes place inside each bottle, creating its fine bubbles and deep flavors. The wine is then aged for a couple of years. This process takes time and care, but results in Champagne’s signature elegance. By contrast, wines like Prosecco use a faster method where the second fermentation happens in large steel tanks, producing lighter, fruitier bubbles at a lower cost.

Question 3

What is a good and affordable Champagne ?

Accepted Answer

Major Champagne houses maintain its luxury image through heavy investment in branding, which drive the prices up. Artisan Champagnes provide an interesting alternative to the premium branded Champagnes. They offer excellent quality at a more accessible price, often showcasing the distinctiveness of the individual vineyard or terroir.
