TASTING NOTES:	The 2018 Extra-Brut Hors Série is 100% Chardonnay from villages in the Côtes des Blancs. Aromatic and expressive, the Hors Série also shows all the textural intensity and nuance that are such house signatures here. I find the 2018 a bit less defined and articulate than the other wines in this tasting. Floral, citrus, almond and orchard notes are nicely amplified. There's a touch more oak influence in the Hors Série, which also suggests a somewhat intrinsically lighter wine. Dosage is 3 grams per liter.

About Champagne

Champagne, the epitome of sparkling wine elegance and celebration, hails from the namesake region in northeastern France, approximately 90 miles from Paris. The unique terroir, marked by a cool climate and chalky soils, sets the stage for the distinctive qualities of the grapes cultivated in this renowned viticultural area.

Crafted predominantly from three grape varieties – Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier – Champagne undergoes a meticulous production process known as the traditional method or méthode champenoise. This involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle, fostering the creation of effervescence, while an extended period on lees imparts complexity to the wine's flavor profile.

Champagne offers a diverse array of styles, including Non-Vintage (NV) blends for consistency, Vintage Champagnes from exceptional years, Rosé Champagnes often created with a touch of red wine, and Prestige Cuvées showcasing the pinnacle of a producer's artistry.

The sweetness levels of Champagne vary, denoted by terms such as Brut, Extra Brut, Sec, and Demi-Sec. Brut, the most prevalent style, signifies a dry Champagne.

The landscape of Champagne includes both venerable Champagne houses like Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Dom Pérignon, as well as smaller, independent growers focusing on estate-grown grapes. The region is protected by the French AOC system, emphasizing the exclusive use of the name "Champagne."

Globally recognized and associated with special occasions, Champagne is a symbol of luxury and joy. The Comité Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne (CIVC) oversees regulations and quality standards, highlighting the economic importance of Champagne production for the region.

Whether sipped as an aperitif, paired with a meal, or toasting to a milestone, Champagne stands as an iconic and cherished sparkling wine, embodying the artistry, tradition, and effervescence that define this illustrious French wine.
