Wat champagne behalve de tongen al niet los maakt. Hoe kan het ook anders als er miljoenen flessen, tientallen boeken, honderden publicaties en nou ook weer een speciale website de wereld in worden geholpen. Hopelijk wordt dit nieuwe journaal weer niet financieel in leven gehouden door ‘de industrie’. Want dan is te voorspellen welke kant het uit gaat. Lees hier de integere geloofsbelijdenis van de initiatiefnemende bubbelaanbidders:

Dear friends,

It gives us great pleasure to announce the translation of the first edition of Le Web Journal du Champagne in English, thanks to the invaluable help of our friend Neil Michael Dixon (from Esprit de Champagne).

The magazine, dedicated entirely to champagne, has been available in French since June 2011. We will be translating the two other editions that have already been published and from then on, we will be publishing both versions, English and French, in parallel.

Every three months, we will be bringing you news and commentary from the very heart of the Champagne Region. We will be inviting you on a voyage of discovery bringing you the best wine-growers and the great champagne houses, through in-depth interviews and tastings. We will be showing you what makes these particular sparkling wines the best in the world (varietals, terroirs, techniques), not forgetting an exploration of the magic of gastronomic food pairings with champagne.

Champagne is a fine wine, let us show you!

Claire and Julien Zika
