METHODE CHAMPENOISE: Refers to the "traditional" method of making Champagne or sparkling wine. In this method, secondary fermentation is induced in blended still wines while in the bottle. The innoculation of dosage and yeast turns the still wine to sparkling wine, since the carbon dioxide cannot escape the bottle. Ultimately, the yeast sediment is disgorged, and the bottle is resealed.
