The Bubblyothèque Roadshow continues - next stop, SF!!
Rejoining with a fellow partner in champagne enthusiasm (countless bottles at Pops back in the day, a visit to the Champagne region, and some memorable tastings through the years), I'll help you understand what made us fall in love with these wines.
This will be a Champagne 101 - we'll drink through a variety of styles to help you gain an understanding of the champagne process and the breadth of styles out there for you to enjoy. We'll do a classic blend, a blanc de blancs (or two!), a blanc de noirs, a rose and a special vintage bottle. As always, the focus will be on small producers making high quality wines that are part of a dynamic and delicious time in which to drink champagne.
In addition to the wine, some champagne-friendly bites will be available.
