For Yang, it is the \u201cthe verve, energy and emotion\u201d of champagne that made him fall deeply in love with it. \u201cChampagne is such a joyful drink, frequently associated with celebration and occasions, and perfectly refreshing for our tropical climate!\u201d he enthused. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Its association with celebration is said to date back to the Belle \u00c9poque era in Europe. During the late 1800s to early 1900s, it was enjoyed by the wealthy at events, cementing its status as a symbol of joy. Today, this image persists through mainstream media and culture, where celebratory moments often begin with the iconic pop of Champagne. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the pandemic, Singapore\u2014being a gastronomic hub\u2014was primed and ready for its first dedicated Champagne bar. Enter, Convivial Champagne Bar, <\/span>a cosy setup near Boat Quay, founded by award-winning sommelier Yeo Xi Yang, offering a carefully curated selection of about 200 Champagne labels, including red, white, and orange wines, as well as artisanal cider.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know?

Instead of a singular fermentation, wine makers have to ferment it twice to develop the signature toasty and bready character, along with the fine effervescence and a creamy mouthfeel, as opposed to a soda-like carbonation. After the first fermentation, all champagne begins as a clear white or ros\u00e9 wine, regardless of white or red grapes, known as Vin Clair. It then undergoes a second fermentation in the individual bottles, where the wine rests for months to interact with dead yeast or lees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contrary to popular belief, Champagne shouldn\u2019t be served ice-cold, as over-chilling dulls its aromas and flavours. Instead, aim for 5\u20137\u00b0C for young Blanc de Blancs to fully enjoy the fresh and crisp notes or 7-10\u00b0C for older or barrel fermented ones to take in the bold and rich flavours. To fully appreciate your Champagne, serve it in a Champagne flute or a white wine glass, and engage your senses\u2014sight, smell, taste, and touch\u2014as you sip your way to bliss. The magic touch? Enjoy it with your nearest and dearest.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Choosing Your Champagne<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_397559\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-397559\" style=\"width: 767px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-397559\" src=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne-767x628.png\" alt=\"Henri Giraud Champagne\" width=\"767\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne-767x628.png 767w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne-1024x838.png 1024w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne-98x80.png 98w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne-768x628.png 768w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-8-Henri-Giraud-Champagne.png 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 90vw, (max-width: 599px) 432px, 536px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-397559\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Henri Giraud Champagne Image by Convivial Champagne Bar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step to choosing your Champagne is to understand the terms on the labels. You\u2019ll see French terms like <\/span><b>Brut<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><b>Extra Brut<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which indicates the sweetness levels. Brut has less than 12g of sugar per litre, while Extra Brut has half of that. <\/span><b>Blanc de Blancs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tells you that this is a white wine from white grapes, typically Chardonnay, while <\/span><b>Blanc de Noirs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> refers to white wine made from red grapes. A <\/span><b>Non-Vintage (NV)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Champagne contains multiple years of harvest, creating a consistent taste profile across batches. Because the same quality and taste can be expected, most Champagne houses call these wines the \u201cheart and soul of their winery.\u201d When you see <\/span><b>Cuv\u00e9e<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it refers to one of two things. It can simply mean \u201cEdition\u201d when producers release multiple editions of the Champagne each year or it can refer to the best-quality juice, specifically the first 2,050 litres pressed from 4,000 kilograms of grapes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Tasting Notes<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_397558\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-397558\" style=\"width: 767px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-397558\" src=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes-767x628.png\" alt=\"Tasting notes\" width=\"767\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes-767x628.png 767w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes-1024x838.png 1024w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes-98x80.png 98w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes-768x628.png 768w, https:\/\/citynomads.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Know-Your-Champagne-7-Tasting-Notes.png 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 90vw, (max-width: 599px) 432px, 536px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-397558\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy of Deposit Photos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A well-made Champagne offers balance and complexity, delivering a symphony of flavours and textures.

While barrel-aged Champagnes with richer and more complex flavours will complement dishes like poached or grilled seafood in cream sauce, charred vegetables like brusselsprouts or kai lan, and it even goes well with sio bak (crispy pork belly).
