Food: Champagne was not invented by Dom Perignon — the Englis…

Question

Did you know? Champagne was not invented by Dom Perignon — the English already knew how to make deliberately sparkling wine in 1662. Dom Perignon actually worked to ELIMINATE bubbles; they were a "defect" until French aristocrats associated them with class.

Champagne werd niet uitgevonden door Dom Perignon — de Engelsen ontdekten al in 1662 hoe te bewust koolzuurhoudende wijn te maken. Dom Perignon werkte juist OM bubbels te ELIMINEREN; ze waren een "fout" tot Franse aristocraten ze met klasse associeerden.
