Explore Champagne’s bold evolution from historic traditions to a new era of artisanal Rosé and the "Green Revolution" reshaping the vines.
About this Event

Join us for the grand finale of our Champagne Master Class series. We’re moving beyond the Grandes Marques—the famous historic houses—to explore the radical shifts in how Champagne is grown, blended, and bottled. Whether you are a lover of "Pink" (Rosé) or a supporter of "Green" (Sustainability), this session is an essential deep dive into the future of the world's most famous bubbles.


What’s on the Menu?
  • The Rosé Renaissance: Why are some Rosés peach-toned and others ruby red? We’ll contrast the elegant precision of Rosé d’Assemblage (blending) against the bold, structural intensity of Rosé de Macération (skin contact).
  • The Future of Freshness: We’ll look at how a changing climate is forcing the region to rethink its growing cycle and explore the new, "green" innovations arriving in the vineyards to protect Champagne’s signature acidity.
  • A Tale of Two Philosophies: We will untangle the fascinating tension between the historic art of the "House Blend" and the modern, grower-led movement toward single-parcel, site-specific expressions.

The Tasting Lineup

We will taste through six benchmark bottles from the "Rockstars" and innovators of the region. From historic houses to gritty, terroir-driven growers, these wines are hand-selected to illustrate the stylistic extremes of modern Champagne.

Space is limited for this final session. Secure your glass and join the conversation.


The venue address will be shared after registration.
