Champagne is a sparkling wine made by secondary fermentation of wine. The name of this, perhaps, the most famous wine comes from the French province of Champagne, where grapes began to be grown back in the III century AD. This is the most festive drink. It is drunk to the sound of chimes, at weddings and other significant events. The girls are especially delighted with the champagne. It is said that the first person who tamed the "devil's wine" was the monk Dom Perignon, who lived in the XVII century. He was the first to come up with blending and began to bottle wines, which made it possible to retain carbon dioxide from a hitherto exploding barrel. Nowadays, the production of champagne is a carefully controlled, long and very laborious process.
