What Is The Difference Between Sparkling Wine and Champagne?
The only true difference is that champagne comes from where its name is derived: Champagne, France, a northeastern city near Paris.
The term sparkling wine indicates all sparkling wine that doesn't come from the French region of Champagne
True champagne is made from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir Meunier, and is made through a lengthy and traditional process that involves a secondary fermentation after the bottle is sealed.
