I believe that a few months back there was a change in the US law regarding
the term Champagne. In general, the law sates that any new brand of
sparkling wine produced after the law was passed cannot be called Champagne.
Those that used the term before the new law may still call their sparkling
wine Champagne. I believe the most if not all of the better quality
California sparkling wines do not use the term Champagne. Most also say
Traditional Method or Method Traditional.
