Secondly, Pieter Verheyde offers an overview of the 10 absolute top brands, 35 medium-sized renowned Champagne houses, but also 20 lesser known yet high-quality Champagnes for which he has a personal preference. For each, he elaborates on its history, location, production process and the different types of champagne they offer. In addition, Pieter suggests a number of Champagne routes and includes all practical information needed to visit the houses. The book ends with an overview of the famous 'cuvées' and a glossary.
