Climate Change Affecting Champagne ‘Taste’ Could Mean That Sparkling Wines Could Taste More Like The Taste We Want.

I see opportunity.

Yes, yes, yes, I get that ‘Champagne‘, these days’ can ONLY be used with champagne produced in France’s historic champagne region. I get that. I know that.

I also remember when sparkling wines from other countries used to be called champagne.

IF what you are after is the TASTE, TEXTURE & FEEL, rather than the name — & the cachet that goes with it — THEN it is possible that CLIMATE CHANGE is making some sparkling wines, say from the U.S., taste more like what you are after.

Think about it.

Name or Taste?

That has become the question.
