Visit the Marne Valley with me and taste at 3 small champagne producers!
Have you ever heard of "anti-champagne"? Curious if 2024 will be a good vintage for Champagne? Wanting to level up your knowledge around small grower producers in Champagne? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions then today's episode is for you! In September, I traveled to Champagne and got to visit 3 small grower producers to discuss what they are doing to stand out in the Marne Valley. Join me as I help pick grapes before the harvest to test for maturity, taste non traditional styles of champagne, discuss the challenges in a difficult harvest year, and so much more!

🇫🇷Love Cremant. Easy to find at Whole Foods.
@@gabrielleparis3532 yes! It’s such a great quality for the price point! 🥳 so glad you love it too! 🍾
❤Wonderful series! Thank you!
Glad you enjoy it!🎉
🍾❤Thank you Sarah for your fabulous videos. In one of your Champagne videos you mentioned you would provide a link to the Champagne tour company you used for a day trip. I could not see a link ( this video was 10 months ago in your Champagne 101 series) Merci🇫🇷
Hi Gabrielle! Thanks for watching and I’m so sorry I didn’t include that link! Here it is: www.parischampagnetour.com they are AMAZING! I cannot say enough good things!! Great day trip from Paris if you want to see the region and you don’t want to organize the travel details/ winery reservations on your own!! Thanks again for following the wine ceo 🥳🥂
So your Christmas tree isn't a big ol' grape vine? Ha ha.
Haha no but since I haven’t decorated it, it probably looks more like a grape vine at this point lol 😂😂!!
👏👏 very insightful
Thank you!! Glad you liked it 🥳🥂
Very informative video, thank you ❤
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!!
Raaataaafiiiiaaaa in Catalan not ratafia as spelt and pronounced in English/American English
Hi! I’m actually referring to the Ratafia wine in Champagne France in this video :) I’m not referencing the Catalan liqueur by the similar name. Thanks for watching though!
@@thewineceo I’ll need to try that too then 😊
@@timfair8995definitely! It’s delicious!
Just a conjecture but could it be that zoomer palate is more childish in the sense that they prefer straightforward/addictive tasting profiles as that has sort of been guided by the food and beverage industry which aims to make people to consume compulsively - obviously for the sake of more profits? In my home country Brazil, I sense the same although wine has always been far less accessible to ordinary people than in the US and even less so than in the UK where I've been living for 7 years. In Britain I see zoomers going strong on wine but probably following the American trend as well... but I'd also say good wine has become considerably less affordable after the pandemic and that certainly doesn't help...
It’s a really interesting thought! I definitely agree that many in Gen Z are still refining their palate, so they may be attracted to a simpler wine profile. Naturally when younger folks transition from juice and soda to wine and cocktails, they tend to enjoy sweeter styles before they expand into bolder flavors. So it may be an age and experience aspect too. I think the main challenge is financial as younger generations don’t have as much disposable income to spend on wine which can make it less accessible at this stage. Great discussion though! Thanks for the comments!!
Great alternatives and great explanations of everything!
Thank you so much!! 🎉🥂
Very enjoyable! Just subscribed.
Thank you for subscribing! 🥳🍾
Great tips! 🎉 and the demonstration was really helpful!
I’m so glad! Thank you for watching!
Great recommendations 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thanks so much! Love your show 😊
Thank you for watching!! 🥂 so glad you’re enjoying it!
Great tips and encouragement 👏🏼🎉
Glad you enjoyed the episode!!
I have tried skinny girl and fit wine 🍷 but rather just have a nice Pino or red blend or a malbec!
I completely agree! 🍷
Thank-you for the information
Of course! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for that information! How many carbs are in wine?
Of course! Thanks for watching! And the average glass (5oz) will have 1-4g of carbs depending on the sugar content and grape!
Can't wait to tell my wife!
I hope she is happy to learn this! 🥳🥂
They just vape and smoke weed. Now those are a LOT better lol
You'll always get trolls, just ignore em! A good ole glass of wine is a human treat.
Thank you John!
coz they smoking meph
Avoiding drugs should be seen as something great.
All alcohol is poison
So is Tylenol, we take that as needed (wanted)
you offer no insight.
The question should be why is there an expectation to drink as if that was the norm?
Because alcohol has been a major part of almost every culture since agriculture and farming came into existence 12,000 years ago. Then again, so has heterosexuality.
Train + bike...
Personally, I don’t feel that train and biking are the best options for the region. The train doesn’t go to the small towns and villages where many of the producers are located. And while I love biking, the distance between smaller towns and villages can take 20-30 minutes by drive, which would be quite the long bike journey! Just my opinion though!
@@thewineceo I'm currently in Reims. Just came back from Epernay. Previously visited Rilly la Montagne, Ay and Avenay. Travelling by 'that' train. And then I just walk across different villages, vineyards and especially vine fields. I spent the last 3 weeks like that. After trying bikes and Ubers I'll say walking with a bottle of champagne is the most rewarding. Unless you're here only to take a pic next to Dom Peri statue.
@@Gr3kiZon3wow, I am so impressed as that must take a long time. Typically I have appointments at smaller grower producers throughout the day, so I can’t rely on the local train as it’s not always on time :) but it sounds like you have more flexibility in your days, which is awesome! Love that you just walk through the vineyards too as I agree - that’s the best way to experience the region!
@@thewineceo if so, next time you're here you MUST visit 'Maison en Champagne Nathalie Liebart'. Her champagne is outstanding and it's only a quick drive from Epernay!
Because alcohol is poison
I like to think that anything in excess can be harmful (food, tv, and even exercise). So I practice moderation! But if you don’t like alcohol at all, this may not be the channel for you 😊 no judgement!
@ no. That’s why Gen z is drinking less
Yeah, sure that's why that generation vapes.
We’ve been drinking wine for thousands of years. It’s not poison.
@ eh. It’s poison
I,m gen Z and drink wine
I’m so glad to hear that! 🙌🏻🍷
0:30 is not pronounced "smell..ier", even though is has to do with the "smell". The correct pronunciation is / sʌməlˈjeɪ/ SUM-əl-YAY and the origin or the word, interestingly enough, has nothing to do with the "smell" - it comes from the latin word "sagma" (packsaddle).
I never knew the Latin origin! So interesting - thanks for sharing! 🥂🥳
@@thewineceo salute!
Those were some really good points!
Thank you! It’s an interesting topic right now!
Great tips and suggestions!
Thank you so much!!
Welcome back CEO !
Thank you!! It’s nice to be back! 🥳🥰🥂
You were so missed! Welcome back!
Thank you so much!! 🥂❤️
Yay! Welcome back! 🎉
Thank you so much!! 🎉❤
Thank you, great video! Do you have any recommendations for the best place to see tunnels that demonstrate life underground when used as refuge during the war? That, along of course as the champagne? :)
Ooh great question! Both Mumm and Pommery have great tours of the tunnels as well as delicious Large House Champagnes. Between the two, I would personally do the Mumm tour. I have heard that Ruinart's tunnels are stunning, but I haven't had a chance to visit them yet! No matter where you go, you can't go wrong!
@@sarahroth14 Thanks.
You explain everything so well and in a non-pretentious way. Thank you for a wonderful explanation of this region!
Thank you for the compliment! I truly appreciate that so much. Thanks for watching!! 🥳🍇
Great video and very informative. I’m still debating on going to Epernay with guided tour or Reims 😅. My husband and I are going only for a day from Paris November 8th
Thank you for watching! That is a difficult decision! If you would like to see the big names and labels, I would do Épernay. If you want a little more history of the region and Notre dame cathedral, I would do Reims. You can’t go wrong either way! Enjoy! 🥂
Good contents and presentation. But when I hear in my latest AirPods on one year is active. Please analyze how you record the video so that both channels are active. Thanks!
Thank you! Yes, I have heard that feedback before and will be sure to address it in future recordings :) thank you!
Great Video, thank you! You can make your Mic record in mono, or switch to mono in edeting! ;)
Thank you so much for the tip! I admit I’m not a tech savvy person - wine is my thing 🙈! So I’m grateful for the help and will swap to Mono on the mic 😉 thanks for watching!!
Please repet this recording you are going over the speed limit could not grasp your diatribe’s in entire presentation thank you
This is a very informative video. Thank you!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!🥂
Great video. One of the most educational I’ve come across.
Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🥂
Great interview. And great book. I have a copy. Terrific to see a focus on the diversity of Aussie wine.
Thank you for watching! 🎉🍷
I'm going to buy Jane and Jonathan's book. Hope our local Australian prices don't rise due to exports. Check out this list of wineries and wine varieties produced. Sam Miranda Arneis Michelini Vermentino Piano Piano Pinot Grigio Francesco Prosecco Pizzini Verduzzo Dal Zotto Garganega (soava) Trimboli Trebbiano De Bortoli Fiano Polotini Grecanica Looks like Italy? No, it's the Victorian Alpine Valleys settled by Italian immigrants from the 1920's onward. Then there is Rutherglen world famous for its fortified wines and Durif, on the palate blueberries, blackberries, dark chocolate, plums, black pepper, espresso, menthol, mocha and black tea that will cellar for decades. Warrabilla Reserve Parola Durif is one of my favourites. Beechworth produces world class chardonnay. Anyone with an interest in wine, visiting Australia, could easily spend a week or two doing cellar door tastings at these three regions in North East Victoria All are within 60 min of Albury Wodonga. Nearly all are small family owned wineries. I'm so fortunate to live in this region. Interesting fact. The world's oldest wine producing Shiraz, Mourvedre, Grenache and Cab Sav vines are in the Barossa. Eden Valley has some of oldest Reisling vines still producing wine. Most were planted in the 1830's. No phylloxera in South Australia.
I love all of this! Thanks for adding some wonderful points for everyone to learn! I agree that you are so lucky to live in the heart of such an amazing wine region! Thanks for listening 🥳🥂
Why does Sarah make no attempt to correctly pronounce Maisons á la Française?
I don’t speak French so sadly my pronunciations are not great! I promise I try, but it isn’t pretty 😉 thank you for watching despite my pronunciations! 🥂
@@thewineceo Sarah, your French pronunciation of all other words were perfect, which is why the maisons stuck out for me. Very good video and tips 👍
Thank you! I’ll keep practicing 😉🥂
Enjoy the time away to re-charge!! Love life & love you!!
Thank you Brandt ❤🥰 Love you!
☀ Enjoy your break!
Thank you so much! 🫶🏼🥂
Fabulous education
Thank you so much! 👏🏼🥂
Great information and well presented. I live in Perth and have access to the lesser known region of Swan Valley (excellent wines) and Margaret River. Many people don't realise that Australia actually has some of the oldest vines in the world and due to the unique terroir and climate, I consider some wines to be like Old World wines on steroids. I have bought several cases of wine from Taylors Wines (no affiliation) which would absolutely crush the current "popular" international Australian wine market. As an example, Taylors Wines in South Australia won the International Champion 2022 award from VINUS for the 2020 Estate Shiraz label, and last year received a perfect 100 point score from the VINUS panel for the 2022 Taylors Heritage Label Shiraz. I was lucky to get a case direct from the cellar, before major restaurants around the world bought all remaining stock and sold out within days. The following is obviously my own biased opinion, but the Yellow Tail red wine sold in America is like having the worst tasting American beer (according to US statistics) representing American beers. No one I know touches that stuff, which is why it is shipped off (or should I sarcastically say deported) to you guys. It would be interesting to see how Jonathan Ross views this.
Hey! Thank you for watching and sharing all of that AMAZING knowledge on your home 😍🙌🏻🍷 I’m so jealous you live in one of the best wine regions in the world (imo!!). And I completely agree that we don’t get enough top quality Aussie wine here in the US. I’m not familiar with Taylor Wines, but will definitely look them up. Thank you for sharing!! 👏🏼🙌🏻
