The wine par excellence for festive occasions, Champagne actually has a more complex personality. Despite the single name "Champagne", there are many different champagnes. Champagne can be "Blanc de Blancs" (chardonnay), "Blanc de Noirs" (pinot noir, pinot meunier or both), it can be made with a blend of three vines, it can be the fruit of one or more crus, it can be white or rosé, vintage or not, and dosed in variable proportions. Furthermore, the Champagne region includes an area with three AOCs: Champagne, Coteaux-Champenois and Rosé-des-Riceys. On the different banks of the Marne, Reims and Épernay share the role of capital of Champagne. The territory of the Champagne denomination is made up of different areas: the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs at the gates of Epernay, the Grande Vallée de la Marne and the two banks of the Vallée de la Marne which then extend into the vineyards of the Aisne and from the Vallée du Surmelin. Finally, the Aube vineyard is located in the extreme south-east of the appellation area and is separated from the other sectors of the region by 75 kilometers where vines are not grown.
