There is a common misconception that the most expensive bubble are the most quality one and are the ones you are gonna enjoy most. There is some little truth in this, but at the same time, I don’t entirely agree with it. Some of the brands have a higher price just because of the marketing strategy which positions some brands as superior. The fact is that old champagne, and mostly the vintage type has finer mousses than the younger and non-vintage types. The higher the age of champagne, the higher the quality and consequently the higher the price. When you are set to celebrate a bottle of this fine wine, these are the factors that are supposed to guide you to ensure that you realize the value of your money.
What type of champagne do you like? Champagne are categorized into 2 major categories as explained above; Vintage champagne and Non-vintage champagnes.
Rose, brut, Blanc De Blancs and Blanc De Noir fall under these two categories. The brut types are dry champagnes and are more suited to people who appreciate dry wines while the rose champagnes are the sweet types. There is a belief that vintage champagnes are of more quality than non-vintage ones because of their complex preparation method, but the truth boils back to the preference. The blending in the non-vintage champagnes makes them lighter on the palate which means they can be enjoyed any time unlike the vintage types which blending is limited to just one particular year then aged for long making them more heavier but better quality. This makes the vintage champagnes more premium brands but also very rare in comparison to their counterparts.

Consider the grapes utilized in the preparation that particular brand. Champagnes are prepared from three types of grapes; Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Each of these grapes has its particular influence on the end result of the champagne.
