Champagne isn't a varietal
Posted by jimbill on June 23, 2018 at 12:35:01:
Varietals used in champagne are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier.
I do like a well made Chardonnay. With food, I prefer a french style which are typically drier and have more of a mineral element.
I also love a good Riesling. I've had some good American but I still prefer a German made. Unluckily it seems they have fallen out of favor. The selection at stores has reduced to about 30% of what they used to carry here in Houston.
