Its namesake, Benedictine Monk Dom Pierre Pérignon, described the Champagne as tasting of stars, and an out-of-this-world summary seems fairly accurate even to this day. There are three types of champagne glasses to choose from: Champagne flutes, coupes and tulips. Real Champagne glasses have curves, which highlight the aromas and allow the bubbles to fizz for longer. Open the bottle by gently loosening the cork and pour slowly, so the bubbles don’t overflow in the glass. Start by pouring an inch of Dom Pérignon and allowing the liquid to settle. Top off each glass until it’s no more than two-thirds full.

Dom Pierre Pérignon, a French Benedictine monk, set out his vision to "create the best wine in the world" when he became Cellar Master at the sacred Abbey of Hautvillers in 1668. Dom Pérignon dedicated over 40 years to this mission, employing a visionary spirit and daring approach to the wine making process. Over that time, he became known as the "father of champagne" for laying down the fundamental rules for the traditional Champagne production method (La Methode Champenoise or Traditionelle). A favored wine of the Sun King Louis XIV, Dom Pérignon himself compared his wine to "drinking stars". Stevenson, Tom. World Encyclopedia of Champagne and Sparkling Wine (Fully rev. and updated ed.).
