Champagne
An iconic style of sparkling wine and many people's go-to choice for a big celebration! Champagne production is tightly regulated and is a protected appellation. Here's a little cheat sheet on what some labels mean:
Blanc de Blancs = 'white of whites' and is made with 100% Chardonnay grapes | Blanc de Noirs = 'whites of blacks' made with red grapes (Pinot Meunier & Pinot Noir) grown in Champagne.
Grand Cru = the highest classification, awarded to the best vineyards! | Premier Cru = the second-highest classification of Champagne.
