You forgot to mention that the production quotas are decided by the union of producers, except that the monopolistic great houses of Champagne (Möet, Perrier, Heidsick, Deutz,...) own more than half of the whole production of Champagne, so basically they choose the price of Champagne and the majority of the producers can't refuse as they are extremely small producers in comparison.

@@Lozo39 The thing is that champagne in many languages is synonymous with "sparkling wine". My language is one example of such thing. But someone decided to make it a brand to make money so suddenly we need other terms like "sparkly wine". Its stupid greed and nothing more really. All it would take is to add one word behind champagne from Champagne branding it as the "original". I will give you example from my own country that you are bound to know... Pilsener. And instead of being stingy like Champagne the brand still made in place of origin (Pilsen Czech Republic) is named Pilsner Urquell (urquell meaning "original well" in latin). Why? Simply because everyone was using pilsener as a name for this specific kind of beer and there was no need changing that. Instead international court made it so that you need to state a place of origin of said beer on label. All the things you named apply to pilsner too (tradition, fair trade, ...). And the same should apply to champagne since its synanymous with the specific kind of wine in many languages.

When you make a sparking outside you can get a wine witch is not good in off because of lack off sun if it's too much in north it will not taste the same, and if its too sunny, you will need too much sulfur and then it creates headaches.

Wikipedia : *Champagne* (/ʃæmˈpeɪn/, French: [ʃɑ̃paɲ]) is sparkling wine. Many people use the term Champagne as a generic term for sparkling wine but in some countries, it is illegal to label any product Champagne unless it both comes from the Champagne region and is produced under the rules of the appellation.Where EU protectionism laws apply, this alcoholic drink is produced from grapes grown in the Champagne region of France following rules that demand, among other things, secondary fermentation of the wine in the bottle to create carbonation, specific vineyard practices, sourcing of grapes exclusively from specific parcels in the Champagne appellation and specific pressing regimes unique to the region. Primarily, the grapes Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay are used in the production of almost all Champagne, but a tiny amount of pinot blanc, pinot gris, arbane, and petit meslier are vinified as well. Champagne appellation law allows only grapes grown according to appellation rules in specifically designated plots within the appellation to be used in the production of Champagne. Champagne became associated with royalty in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. The leading manufacturers made efforts to associate their Champagnes with nobility and royalty through advertising and packaging, which led to popularity among the emerging middle class. The most prestigious Champagne cellars are located in the cities of Reims and Épernay. Hope you have a nice day!

[@jacob9540]

Low supply and high demand is really all it is. The high demand particularly because Champagne has done such a tremendous job of cementing the association with luxury, class, wealth, etc. with its product more than other wine regions have. It is also a more labor-intensive process to make champagne, the regional laws put very very strict rules on growers, and they age these wines anywhere from 4-15 years in their cellars before they are released for sale. That’s time that they aren’t generating revenue so the price needs to reflect that.

You forgot to actually explain why it costs more than other wine, it's because unlike other wines, the taste of each champagne brand is consistent, no matter the year, the day it was made. Because a bottle of Moet will taste the same even if it was made 5 years ago, or today. And that's why, unlike other wines, regular champagne doesn't have a year. Only amazing and special harvests are turned into a millesime champagne. And a bottle of champagne can be made of over 60 different years/types of wines produced from Champagne region to keep the taste so fine and consistent and that's only proper to champagne region.

I'm unsure about this idea of consistency. Even though you are right that regular champagne coming out from big brands is really consistent, I disagree that others outside of Champagne or France cannot be as consistent.

This is often a source of misunderstanding between me and some friends used to those quoted wines.

I just read a fascinating book called Wine and War which recounts the experiences of winemakers across France during WWII. The Nazi government wanted production to continue, particularly champagne. Wineries received some special concessions in terms of fuel rations and even labor, especially toward the beginning of the war. Some growers collaborated closely with the Nazis and managed to make some money while their neighbors grew poorer; others risked their lives and livelihoods to help the Resistance. It's an amazing collection of stories, and it was published around 2000, so many of the sources are interviews with people who lived through the war as children or young adults.

You can get quality champagne in the UK for £15 a bottle, often less. Presumably proximity to France and no import duties make it significantly cheaper in the U.K. compared to the states.

[@emmamemma4162]

True, and perhaps the smaller, less-well-known Champagne houses sell some of their wines to the UK.

[@SmilingNinja]

They forgot to mention that there are only 3 types of grapes that can be used to make Champagne: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. So technically, you can use those 3 grapes and use the traditional method to ferment them, but it can't be called Champagne if it's made outside of that region.

[@NkSs96]

That's not true. Champagne can also be made with arbane, pinot blanc and petit meslier.

[@tommasoterzano5180]

It is correct, because the water, the rain and air influence the growth of the grape

Well executed explanation, thank you for sharing about Champagne! However we in Indonesia, it's quite hard for normal citizen to access good wine and champagne due to a high luxury tax. If you don't have a good diplomatic relation and know some people, it's hard to purchase so called fine wine, such as Haut Brion or Chateau Margaux. Please make a video about regulation about luxury tax in alcohol and the difficulty to access fine wine/champagne around the globe.

So why its expensive?? Its because the cost of lawyers to eliminate competition for "champagne" word.

[@Thejigholeman]

artificial scarcity, and branding. the same process can be replicated all around the world, but you can only name it champagne if you made it in champagne, and im willing to bet that champagne(the place) has some real fuckin expensive real-estate from the champagne(drink) racket. i could probably grow some grapes hydroponically in my closet, then ferment them into wine, and make that wine into sparkling wine. but i can't call it "champagne". they literally just trademarked a word, and that is all there is to it.

If you want the best Champagne at the best price point, look for Veuve Clicquot or Nicholas Feuillatte. They're both stunning on the level of Dom but much more reasonable.

I found Veuve Clicquot way superior to Dom Perignon and Moet & Chandon, haven't tried other champagne other than those three though only sparkling wines.

[@cunovandenberg7160]

Champagne is expensive because of the great taste and the better marketing. Furthermore, it’s just expensive because everyone knows that it’s great, and the whole world wants to buy it. You can find amazing cremant ‘d alsace for €10 that undergoes every step of a champagne but just doesn’t have the marketing.

[@wonillic5055]

I know I'm coming here a bit too late but anyway... Just wanted to say that champagne can be found at affordable prices. It's just that the products that are the most sold worldwine are those of big brands such as Moët et Chandon or Veuve Cliquot, which sell their brand with their products. A bit like Nike sometimes selling their shoes at horrendously-high prices just because they are Nike. In fact you can find small producers who sell their champagne at as much as other wine, like 15€, but to find them you'll have, either to go directly to France to buy it or to make them export their products, which they will do only if you buy a big amount of bottles, as it would'nt be profitable for them. So I think champagne is actually as expensive as other traditional products, maybe a bit more. And for those saying that it's not a good wine, imo, it's just that you haven't found the good one yet, or that you don't like champagne at all, which would be a bit surprising as there is a wide scale of different champagne and taste. I'll just say (and thanks if you're reading this) to not confuse the price of a product with it's actual quality, especially when it comes to things that you put in your mouth, it's just a matter of taste. The one who tell you otherwise is just a posh who like to brag about their own money.

If sparkling wine is made in a different place but exactly the same way, it tastes the same right? so champagne being expensive is only expensive because of the name... Someone tell me if I am right please

[@MrTux0]

Most foreigners ignore that a big component of wine (sparkling or not) is the soil, or what we call in french “terroir”, as well as the weather (temperature, humidity…) that’s why we tend to identify wine by the name of the area rather than the grape. It’s common abroad to have people order wine by the grape, and export wine really only focus on that. I tested wine from the same grape same year from the same producer but different soil and they tasted very different. In that case the limestone made the wine astringent. Champagne as a region developed their reputation over time, any one can make sparkling wine and try to replicate the success, as a matter of fact they have tons of competition even inside France :)

[@Jaka.Ellinsworth]

Albert Vidal Oh sorry, I didn't realise you crybabies can't accept criticism. The name "champagne" doesn't have anything to do with the quality, taste, flavour, carbonation, etc of the said drink. Champagne is just what some French like to call (allegedly good) sparkling wine from northern France.

Sparkling wine is the same as Champagne. As for authentic: they forgot to mention that there are no original sorts of wine grapes (destroyed due to deceases) and therefore wines produced in France shouldn't be called Champagne also.
