Description
The champagne process was an evolutionary one not a revolutionary one. Find out how the method developed from an inexpert and uncontrolled phenomenon to the precise and polished process of today. Learn why Champagne is unique among the world's sparkling wine producing regions and why it has become the world-class luxury good that it is. This week explores the in-depth history, geography, climate and wines of Champagne, the world's most famous sparkling wine region, and northernmost fine wine region of France.
This individual class is the first of 12 classes in the French Wine Scholar certification program and is available for à la carte registration. This is a great way to preview the program. Your class fees can be applied to the cost of the full series if you would like to continue on. Those who would like to attend classes online and forgo the wine tastings can apply SKIPTHEWINE at checkout to many online classes for 40% off. SEE ALL WEBONLY CLASSES
