DESCRIPTION:

International Champagne Day is celebrated every year on New Year's Eve. Champagne is the traditional beverage used for toasting in the New Year.

Champagne is a region of France, and only sparkling wines from this region are permitted to be called Champagne. The beverage was invented in the 1600s by Pierre Pérignon, a Benedictine monk of the Abby of Hautvillers. One of his duties at the Abby was to care for the wine cellars. Today we know him as Dom Pérignon.

The original nickname of Champagne was 'Mad Wine,' so dubbed by Pérignon. The bubbles for which it is now known were not desirable, and they were downright aggravating to Pérignon, who was trying to produce good white wine! Good white wines don't have bubbles. In 1670 the monk developed the méthode champenoise.

Pérignon spent 47 years caring for the wines of the Abby and, in that time, developed many of the pressing and fermenting processes still used today. Champagne would later become the preferred beverage of the elite and the universal symbol of congratulations and celebration.

International Champagne Day is an unofficial event with no sponsor.
