Champagne Experience 2024: the celebration of French bubbles in Modena.

The seventh edition of Champagne Experience , one of the most important events dedicated to Champagne , will host over 900 labels from 167 different producers, including both large historic Maisons and small independent vignerons. The event will be held in the spaces of ModenaFiere on Sunday 20 and Monday 21 October, promising a unique experience for all lovers of French bubbles.

Also this year, the collaboration between Champagne Experience and Champagne de Vignerons is renewed, an association founded in 2001 thanks to the Syndicat Général des Vignerons de la Champagne, with the aim of valorizing the work and passion of small artisan producers. This synergy highlights the lesser-known world of champagne, made up of winemakers who take care of their vineyards and produce authentic wines, often in small quantities, but of the highest quality.

The exhibition pavilions, which extend over a surface area of five thousand square meters, are organized according to a territorial subdivision that reflects the main wine-growing regions of Champagne: Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, Côte des Blancs and Côte des Bar. Each area will be dedicated to a specific production area, with the aim of highlighting the unique characteristics of the wines of each region. In addition, a special section will be reserved for the great maisons, to offer visitors a direct comparison between the different souls of champagne.

"The master classes are almost sold out," said Luca Cuzziol , president of the Italian Distributors and Importers Society. "These in-depth sessions represent an extraordinary opportunity to explore specific themes with the help of highly prestigious guests and expert speakers." Among the most anticipated events, on Sunday 20 October, sommelier Luca Boccoli will lead a master class with the evocative title "The darkness beyond the perlage," in which participants will be invited to taste six cuvées blindfolded, following the instructions of an expert blind taster, to explore wine in a sensorial and profound way.

In addition to tastings and master classes, the event will offer participants numerous opportunities to delve deeper into the culture of Champagne . Thematic seminars, meetings with producers and moments dedicated to the discovery of winemaking techniques will enrich the program, making Champagne Experience an educational and exciting experience. This event represents a unique opportunity to learn about the history, traditions and innovation that characterize the world of champagne, putting the public in contact with some of the biggest names in the sector, but also with small producers who work with artisanal and sustainable methods. ModenaFiere will thus be transformed into a large stage where the bubbles from beyond the Alps will be the absolute protagonists, between tradition and modernity, celebration and knowledge.
