#39 Champagne with Gersande Breton of Champagne Germar Breton

What better way to ring in the new year than with Champagne?!

In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of Champagne with Gersande, a marketing expert for her family's champagne business in Champagne, France.

Gersande takes us through the intricate process of crafting authentic champagne, from hand-harvesting the three primary grape varieties to the meticulous steps of pressing, fermenting, blending, and aging.

We explore the unique qualities that make Champagne stand out from other sparkling wines, including its specific soil, climate, and time-honored techniques protected by strict regional regulations.

Gersande also shares insights into how the flavors of Champagne—fruity, floral, and mineral—are shaped by the blend of grapes and their precise maturation process and she teaches us how to pair your Champagne with your food.

Have you been eating chocolate with your Champagne? You're going to want to stick around until the end to find out why you might need to STOP doing that!

Join us for this deep dive into the heritage and craftsmanship behind one of the world's most celebrated beverages, as well as the family traditions that keep the spirit of Champagne alive.

Happy New Year!
