Types of Champagne

Blanc de blancs - Champagnes known as Blanc de blancs are made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes.

Blanc de noirs - Only two black grapes, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, are allowed in the making of champagne.

Rosé - Rosé is produced by either adding a small amount red wine made from Pinot noir grapes or allowing the skins of the black grapes to leach in to the champagne.

Sweet or Dry Champagne

The sweetness of champagne is determined by how much sugar is added after fermentation. The least sweet (or dry) champagne is known as Brut Natural and the sweetest is Doux. In between, the options include Extra Brut, Brut, Extra Sec, Sec and Demi Sec, although the most popular are Brut champagnes.
