Production method
Champagne is produced in the Champagne region of France. The production method involves fermentation in the bottle with the addition of sugar and yeast. After fermentation, the wine is left to rest on the lees for at least 15 months. The process of removing the yeasts, called “removal”, takes place with the inversion of the bottles and the subsequent addition of dosing liquid. The dosing liquid, a blend of sugar and wine, determines the sweetness level of the champagne. Finally, the bottles are sealed with a mushroom cap and left to rest for a few months before being marketed.
