The comprehensive guide to Champagne (7/7 people found this helpful)
Travelling in Champagne visiting champagne houses as well as growers they all have one thing in common; they all refer to Richard Juhlin as the golden palate of Champagne. In ten short years Richard have emerged as the authority in champagne tasting. Richard early decided on putting as much effort in charting the anonymus growers wines as well as the established houses. Richard have tasted well over 5,000 different champagnes with a bottle of Pol Roger 1928 identified as the greatest ever. With the guidance of Richard Juhlin you will find it easy to differentiate between the 200 champagne houses standard wines, vintage wines and prestige wines. You will be guided to the thousands of growers equally good alternatives, and you will find bargains at a fraction of the prices charged by the great champagne houses. Remember that most of the champagnes produced by the champagne houses is made from grapes from the growers, so when they start to bottle their own champagnes...
