What to Expect

Champagne is specifically a sparkling wine made in the Champagne region of France; every other sparkling is simply that, sparkling wine. Made to be aged for a few to many years, in many languages "Champagne" is synonymous with "party". When young, Champagne exhibits the fresh fruit tones of its "cepage", or blend. Usually based on a blend the features either Chardonnay or Pinot Noir as its main ingredient, Champagne's fruit can range from citrusy to orchard fruits and even red berries. The wine gains distinct yeasty notes from its secondary fermentation, the one that adds the fizz, which is typically described as recalling brioche or bread. As it ages Champagne tends to lose its obvious fruit, which is replaced by subtle nutty tones and subdued elements of dried fruits.

Crisp acidity with a touch of lemon zest, many pinpoint bubbles that fade quickly, mineral limestone finish that's not as austere as it might be because of round green apple fruit. This would be a particularly good wine with seafood. There's no info for this on their web page, but I'm told this is roughly equal portions of Petit Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay.
