Richard Juhlin, the world’s foremost champagne expert, takes readers on a journey through the history of the beverage, the leading winemakers of Champagne, and the art of tasting.

Superbly photographed by Pål Allan, this book depicts breathtaking landscapes in Champagne, historic photographs from the most prestigious and long-standing caveau, as well as other images capturing the champagne lifestyle.

Ten exclusive recipes by distinguished Swedish chef Tommy Myllymäki that are perfect for pairing with a glass of champagne are included in this unique publication.
