Trivia: Which is true about Champagne and sparkling wine?
Champagne is a sparkling wine
All sparkling wines are Champagne
The two terms are interchangeable
Champagne only comes from Spain
The correct answer is Champagne is a sparkling wine
So why is this answer correct? : All Champagnes are sparkling wines, but not all sparkling wines are Champagne. “Sparkling wine” is a broad term used to describe this category, which includes Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, and other wines labeled as “sparkling.” Technically, Champagne must come from the Champagne region of France, but it is frequently used incorrectly as a generic term for all sparkling wines. True Champagne is typically made from a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes.
