Pinot Noir in the village of Bouzy
There are two Champagnes: Le Champagne, the sparkling wine, and La Champagne, the region.
Le Champagne is known the world over, but La Champagne, and indeed the strictly delimited vine-growing area called La Champagne Viticole, doesn’t just produce bubbles.
Any grapes grown in the Champagne vine-growing area can be used to produce still wine, too. These wines are labelled as Coteaux Champenois.
