Snapshot: Champagne drinking habits

Two in three people (66%) in France appreciate champagne, according to new research by IWSR-Wine Intelligence which reveals the preferences and purchasing habits of Champagne residents.

Here in this region, residents appreciate red wines (82%), whites (74%), rosés (64%), beer (68%) and Champagne (60%) over rum (15%), cider (26%) and homemade cocktails (10%). Epicureans at heart, they drink wine several times a week, at home, alone, in pairs or between friends, by associating it with a good meal (94%) or restaurant (96%). In terms of appearance, the wine’s traditional character tops the criteria, closely followed by taste.
