- Quickly pressed, prevent from oxidation
II- Process making of Champagne
Pressuring
- Several times• Each specific grape pressured independently
extraction of juice

1st Fermentation
- Addition of yeast
- Fermentation 1 month
- Sugar = alcohol
- Emission of CO2
- CO2 released
Blending
- Winemakers blend wines

bubbles
7- AgeingChampagne ages at least 15 months

8- riddlingAim : slid the deposit into the neck of the
bottle - Bottles placed at a 45 degree angle- Handled, manually or automatically - Turned during 1 and 5 weeks
Manual riddling
Automatically riddling
II- Process making of Champagne
9- Disgorging- Bottleneck dipped into a
freezing bath (-20°C)- Yeast is trapped in a ice

removes the cap- The pressure shoots out the
yeast ice plug.
