Global Champagne Day 2012

Friday 26 October marks Global Champagne Day for 2012, an occasion for champagne lovers around the world to raise a flute to the wine of celebration.

Running for the third year, everyone can participate online and through social media in the global event that unites people who tweet, write and share their champagne thoughts using the #ChampagneDay hashtag.

The occasion is a perfect opportunity to raid one’s cellar and pop a cork or two while reminiscing about that last trip to Epernay and the visite des caves. Whether you’re toasting a G.H. Mumm Blanc de Blancs, Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque, or any of the grower champagnes or prestige cuvées we’ve featured in the CIVC Champagne Bureau Tasting, we raise you a virtual glass.

Santé et vive le champagne!
