Champagne VS Clairette de Die

Everybody knows the Champagne but what about the Clairette de Die ?

Both are sparkling wines,

   

Both are only produced in specific Regions of France ( AOC )

La Région champenoise

But Production methods are different... 

And also the price !!

•  less than 10 € for a wonderful Clairette de Die,

• From 30 euros to ...? for a good Champagne ( Never forget : the best are not the most expensive and the most famous )
  
  
  

  

  La région dioise

  
  
  What about tasting ?
  
  

• Sharp and fruity for the Clairette de Die 

• Full-bodied and fruity, sharp and fruity, supple and round, young and powerful...... it depends of the types of Champagne ( Rosé, Prestige cuvée... )
