    • Quotes

      Champagne Maker: In a life, the life of a taster, at one point, you taste a bottle and think," That's it. That is the best." It doesn't happen often. It happens two or three times in a life. And it happened when we drank wines made by my great-grandparents and my grandparents. And I said to myself " That is what I would like to do at least once, make a wine that after 50 or 60 years, shines."

    Champagne....it's not just for breakfast any more...
    I knew the basics for how they made champagne--the region of France, the three grape varieties they use and the process by which they removed sediment from the bottles. But this is only talked about in detail at the very end of the film. What's before that is a look at the life of the champagne producers from several different houses--and how incredibly obsessive-compulsive they all are. This is NOT a process for folks who aren't obsessive....and the rules, rules, rules are often seemingly arbitrary. But all this make for a nice little film. Combining this story with lovely classical music, nice narration and rate glimpses at the families who live, breath, drink and think champagne all make a lovely film--one best savored by those who love this heavenly drink.
