STEP 1 - SINGLE VARIETY VS BLEND OF VARIETIES?

Taste these 4 styles of champagne to find out which varietal or blend you prefer:

• A blended Champagne Chardonnay, Pinot noir and/or Pinot Meunier.
• A Champagne Blanc de Blancs made from Chardonnay
• A Champagne Blanc de noirs made only from Pinot Noir
• A Champagne Rosé or a Rosé de Saignée obtained by macerating the black grapes or by blending white wines and a still red wine from the Champagne appellation.
  
  

The tradition in Champagne is to blend wines from different years. The “non-vintage” blend allows a brand to produce wines with the same taste, which is always identifiable. In Vintage Champagne, the blended grape varieties come from a single year. It's vintage. Winegrowers choose to vintage a wine when the harvest has were exceptional. A Vintage Champagne, unlike a non-vintage, will therefore always be a wine with character marked by its year of production.
