In this area over the centuries the “Champenoise” production method has found its definition through refermentation in the bottle, which then spread throughout the world, starting from different vines but also with the same grapes used in Champagne. However, the class, elegance and personality of the wines produced in the area of ​​origin is still unmatched today. The area known as Champagne is located about 150 kilometers north-east of Paris. It seems that the vine was present in the area already in the tertiary era, however the winemaking history of Champagne begins with the Roman Empire. Only starting from the 17th century, thanks to a series of circumstances due to the particular environmental and climatic conditions of the area, producers began to interpret, exploit and control the various production phases, until arriving in the mid-1800s at what we call “Champagne” today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn practice, the vineyards of Champagne are classified with a 1911 system called Echelle des Crus (scale of crus), based on the quality of each individual cru and its distance from the commercial heart of Champagne, namely Reims and Epernay.

This process involves a double fermentation: the first takes place in stainless steel vats and the second in the bottle, where sugar and yeast are added for natural fermentation. During maturation, the bottles are periodically rotated and tilted, a process known as \"remuage\", to ensure an even distribution of sediment.
