A Year in Champagne (2014)
MOVIE
Bubbles burst from the cork, creating an air of celebration, indulgence, and triumph that defines Champagne. However, true Champagne comes solely from the Champagne region, where the winemaking process is anything but simple. Despite its reputation for romance, this area has a tumultuous history marred by wars, from Attila the Hun to the ravages of World War I and II. The challenging climate—characterized by northern latitudes, chalky soil, and unpredictable weather—adds complexity to the wine, ultimately contributing to its distinctive character and allure.
