>> Monday, 15 January 2007

It is this ice plug that is removed ("shot out") at the degorging (degorgement). At Champagne Michel Lenique, Pierry. (A small grower with 9 hectares, primarily Chardonnay. Some good value champagnes, in particular Réserve Blanc de Blanc and the vintage champagne.)- Try our new Wine Picture Blog Update service in Beta version, click here -
