About the Holiday

August 4th marks the celebration of Champagne Day because (according to some sources) this was the day the French Benedictine Monk, Dom Pierre Perignon, discovered the process of making this bubbly libation in 1693. Whether this account is truth or fiction, the day provides a wonderful opportunity to raise our glasses in honor of this man who is widely credited with making important contributions to the production and quality of sparkling wine.
