About Me
I am an intellectual, creative and a lover of aesthetics. I enjoy a good cerebral challenge, a good book, a warm sunny day, perfume and music. I like new environments but like to feel safe in my surroundings. While I feel secure with what is familiar, I also have a zest for adventure. This is what sparks my love of wines. My favorite way to enjoy wine is while lounging in a camisole and terry cloth pants with a scented candle burning and pretty glass in hand. If I am alone I like to read usually a business journal or write. If I am with a friend, I enjoy a game of scrabble or good conversation. I love golf, tennis, solving a problem,hotel lounges, wine bars, cooking, the water, fine stemware and the smell of freshly cut grass.

Champagne would probably be one of the most famous wines today. Admit it, you probably have used champagne and wine almost interchangeably at some point in your life. It's fame is quite understandable because champagne, unlike some wines, is always on the table during festivities. Come to think of it. When you celebrate your birthday, what do you usually drink aside of course from colas? On New Year's Eve? On your best friend's wedding? Champagne, right?
A Quick Glance at the History
Champagne, aside from being a "celebration wine" is world-famous for being a sparkling wine. But Champagne, as we know it today, was originally just a "wine" until of course it adapted the name of the region where it originated.
Dom Perignon, a Benedictine monk, was widely regarded as the Champagne inventor, but history would tell that he was only instrumental to the development that occurred in the Champagne-making process. His contributions include cork usage, blending of different grapes from different vineyards, and clarification strategies.
