Sparkling wine is currently undergoing a revolution. Formally reserved for parties and weddings, the versatile drink is becoming more popular among casual drinkers. Although true Champagne comes only from France, almost all wine-producing countries have their own takes on the drink. The bubbly beverage pairs well with a variety of foods and is capable of adding a touch of class to almost any meal.
Key Takeaways:
- While the name has been casually applied to various sparkling, alcoholic beverages, the French are adamant that Champagne only comes from the locality of “Champagne.”
- It is the environment and weather, specific to the locality of Champagne, which gives the beverage that bears the name its unique taste.
- Once used only for very special events, Champagne is now becoming a far more casually served beverage.
