Champagne is a generic term used by many for sparkling wine, however, in some countries around the world, it is illegal to label any product as Champagne unless it comes from the Champagne region of France and is produced in a specific way.

In the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries Champagne was closely associated with royalty and leading makers went to great efforts to associate their product with nobility and royalty through their advertising and packaging leading to a rise in popularity amongst the middle classes.



Champagne aficionados or those interested in learning more can spend a day of pure indulgence, delving into the wonderful world of Champagne at Champagne Fest at the National Wine Centre, Cnr Hackney and Botanic Roads, Adelaide on Sunday 27 October 2019 from 11 am to 5 pm.
