More about this product
Champagne
The Champagne region is located the furthest north compared to all the wine regions of France. The distinctive taste and purity of true champagne is certainly due to the chalky soil and continental growing conditions. Unlike most other wines, what is characteristic of those from Champagne is that the harvests from different years are blended to produce a final product (non-vintage) or different wines from the same harvest are blended - in this case, the wine is vintage and its year is indicated on the label. This ultimately means that the quality of the resulting champagne depends greatly on the balance between the quality of the grapes and the skills of the winemakers, which is why they are also promoted according to the name of the producer. Thus, in Champagne and around the world, names like Krug, Mumm, Bollinger, Veuve Clicquot are well-known, not to mention the well-known brands Dom Perignon, Moët & Chandon, and Taittinger. The grape varieties in this region are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, which are present in different proportions in the wines from Champagne. The so-called Blanc de Blanc is often produced, made only from Chardonnay grapes, as well as Blanc de Noir, which is white champagne but made from the red grape Pinot Noir. An interesting and little-known fact is that in Champagne, sparkling rosé is made by blending white and red wine, rather than following the standard for producing rosé wine.

Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is the dominant red wine grape of Burgundy, a challenge for every single vine grower and wine producer. It can be found in Germany (as Spätburgunder), Italy (Pino Nero), Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. The wines show a specific aroma of red berries and cherry depending on the vinification method employed - from fresh red cherries in lighter wines to stewed black cherries in weightier examples, many of them also showing hints of earthy flavours.
