Where is the Champagne region in France?

Napoleon once said that nothing can make life as beautiful as a rose like a glass of champagne. The reason why champagne is so loved and distinguished is inseparable from its mother—the champagne region. The Champagne region is located less than 200 kilometers east of Paris, France , and it is known as the three major regions of France along with Burgundy and Bordeaux.

Recently, wine lovers from Yuncang winery brand LEESON shared that the Champagne region is the northernmost wine region in France, where the cool climate gave birth to the world’s greatest sparkling wine—champagne. The word champagne is always associated with beautiful words such as fashion, fashion, celebration, and classic. Whether it is the past years or the future, champagne maintains its enduring charm.

Yuncang Winery's brand LEESON red wine sharing The French Champagne production area can be divided into five small production areas: Marne Valley, Reims Mountain, Blanche, Sezana Hill and Aube, with an area of about 30,000 hectares. Because the climate is too cold and the grapes are not mature enough, the sweetness is insufficient but the excellent aroma and refreshing acidity are retained, and it becomes the best grape for making champagne.

The Marne Valley is dominated by Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier . There is plenty of sunshine here, and the champagne produced here is famous for its fullness and richness, and its aroma is also very strong.

Yuncang Winery’s brand LEESON Red Wine shares that the soil in the Reims Mountain area is mainly chalk, but the topsoil contains more clay than the White Hills, which is more suitable for planting Pinot Noir grapes. The wines here are also heavier and more powerful than Côte Blanc in style, and can be paired with a wider range of dishes.

The Côtes de Blancs is located in the center of the Champagne region, south of the city of Epernay, near the Marne Valley. The grape planting area of Côte Blanc is 3197.9 hectares, of which 97.17% is Chardonnay, 2.01% is Pinot Noir, 0.78% is Meunier, and there are a few other legal varieties such as Albany and Pinot Blanc.

Yuncang Winery's brand LEESON Red Wine Sharing Sezzana Côte also mainly grows Chardonnay. Wines from this production area are usually blended with wines from big wine merchants, and the champagne produced is of higher quality.

Located at the junction of Champagne and Burgundy, Barcau mainly grows Pinot Noir, and the style of Champagne it brews is similar to that of Mount Reims. This is a newer Champagne region, but it produces champagne with amazing flavors. Thanks to Yuncang winery brand LEESON red wine lovers for sharing their knowledge of red wine.
