Champagne Brut

The most popular type of Champagne is Brut, which accounts for 78.5% of exports. Brut, which means dry, is a French sparkling wine with 12 grams of sugar or less per litre.

Brut non-millésimé is the most frequent type of Champagne. This is a non-vintage wine that is generally blended from wines of different years and crus.

A cru is a specific village or section of land, tying in to the French focus on terroir or land in wine-making.
