Episode 1 - Welcome to Epernay - Avenue Champagne
Episode 3: The Vallée de la Marne: Grape Expectations
Meet the main grapes of Champagne — Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier — reimagined as your favorite chaotic characters. We break down the terroirs, the crus, the drama of Grand Cru status, and why sloped hills and cold snaps matter more than you’d think.
Episode 4: Boursault - The Queen
She was widowed at 27 and built an empire before brunch. This episode dives into Madame Clicquot’s rule-breaking business brilliance, Russian wine smuggling, and the Renaissance château she retired to like the Queen of Bubbles she was.
Episode 5: Damery - Hard times in the vines
When grapes got cheap and fraud ran wild, Champagne growers said non. In 1911, vineyards went full revolution. We relive the day Champagne flowed through the streets, merchants ran for cover, and Damery nearly burned. Viva la Vigne!
Episode 6: Dom Pérignon – Monk, Myths & the “Birth” of Bubbly
No, he didn’t invent Champagne. But yes, he made it legendary. We bust the myths, toast the monk, and ride through Hautvillers — the so-called “cradle of Champagne” — to find out what Dom P really did, and why the stars never actually sparkled for him.
