A BRIEF GUIDE TO BLANC DE BLANCS CHAMPAGNE

Want to elevate your Champagne game in 2020? Blanc de Blancs—or “white from whites”—are made exclusively from white grapes, typically Chardonnay. The result is a versatile Champagne that pairs beautifully with food (particularly seafood and strong cheeses) and ages nicely. Whether vintage or nonvintage, everything else just pales.
