What is Global Champagne Day?

Ever wondered why long before modern inventions such as the telephone, the radio and the TV, let alone the internet superhighway and twitter, the bubbles of champagne were somehow already famous literally around the civilised world?

October 28th is the day to find out! On this special day champagne enthusiasts all over the world gather in ‘virtual appreciation’ of champagne to celebrate Global Champagne Day and to share their champagne stories online in places like facebook and twitter.

For twenty four hours the social media airwaves are flooded with comments, stories and videos about the world’s most famous fine wine. Along the way everyone discovers fascinating snippets from the secret life of their favourite champagnes…

Champagne Social Media Success

Champagne can only come from Champagne

Although not all sparkling wines can claim to be champagne, it is equally true that not all champagne is just one style of wine. The wines of Champagne are as varied as the different Champagne Houses, the cooperatives, the growers and indeed the region of Champagne itself, and this is half the pleasure of getting together with friends or colleagues to try different styles of champagne – anytime and any place. I’ve always said there is a champagne for every moment and and a moment for every champagne. So I raise my glass to fellow champagne lovers on-line (and in person wherever possible).

Now with Champagne Day as annual fixture on the global social media calendar, wherever you are on October 28th 2012 you know you have the perfect excuse to pop your cork!
