The Champagne and its history

It was in the beginning a communion wine and the baptism of king Clovis, first king de France, was the first event which one celebrated with Champagne.

A few centuries later, the marriage of Jeanne de Navarre with Philippe le Bel one definitively associated the destiny of the Champagne County that of the crown of France.

It is in Reims that the kings of France will be crowned. The ceremonies, according to accounts', were accompanied very by feasts where the Champagne wines, "the nectar of the kings" ran with floods.

The Champagne is a wine of exception today; one calls upon him as soon as it is a question of distinguishing the scarcity or the size from an event. It is always, in the world, required by those which want to give the one moment historical importance.

There is no Champagne without the magic presence of its bubbles which during several minutes in a cut are formed and reformed, dances, circles and rises towards surface like going up towards the sky, the symbol of all the grace and the spirituality of this rare wine.
