Champagne regulations

Champagne regulations refer to strict rules governing the production of Champagne, a sparkling wine from the Champagne region in France. Key regulations include that it must be made from specific grape varieties (such as Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier), produced within designated geographical boundaries, and follow traditional methods, including secondary fermentation in the bottle. The term "Champagne" is legally protected, meaning only sparkling wines produced in this way and location can bear the name. These regulations ensure quality and authenticity, helping consumers identify genuine Champagne.
