Champagne

Any list of wine destinations would be incomplete without at least one winery from Champagne, France. Of course, this is the only region actually able to call their sparkling wines champagnes. Our pick is specifically boozy. Sorry, our pick is specifically from Bouzy. Bouzy is one of 17 of the 320 villages in the Champagne region to be distinguished as a “Grand Cru,” meaning it’s a top-quality region for production. If you’re going to drink bubbles, they might as well be top quality and in a place called Bouzy. Champagne Delavenne Père & Fils offers visits to the family estate for viewing, tasting, and buying the wines they offer. While they do not offer much in the way of amenities, such as restaurants or hotels on their grounds, they more than make up for it with the amazing quality champagnes they produce. And aren’t bubbles alone worth traveling for?
