Have you ever wondered how it’s made?

fan of grower Champagne, Yoko Ota-Sawyer
has 15 years of experience in the world of
wine, spanning retail sales in the United
States; wine judging in the United Kingdom,
Japan and France; and numerous harvests and
cellar jobs in Champagne and Mosel.
Yoko has been working on this project for
many years with a singular objective: to
communicate everything Champagne-related in a
way that is easy to understand. Uniquely
equipped with not only a passion in the
subject but also numerous behind-the-scenes
experiences, Yoko also happens to be an
accomplished illustrator. Her Instagram
account @yokobubble
frequently features her charming illustrations
of all things Champagne, and now she’s making
good use of her artistic talents for the
benefit of all wine lovers.
Yoko has crafted a playful and highly
personal book, clarifying key aspects behind
this beloved wine in a charming and
approachable manner. Filled with anecdotes,
illustrations, testimonials and technical
minutiae from the Champagne growers who have
become her friends over the years, this book
will appeal to both neophytes and wine nerds.
This is her debut publication.

This is a
collection of my notes
gathered from many
winegrowers who have joined
me on my adventures
travelling and drinking
throughout Champagne. What
emerges is a focus on
Champagne growers and grower
Champagne, the hardworking
artisans and their glorious
wines. Their dedication to
farming and expertise in the
cellar has been a source of
endless fascination for me
and I hope this book
represents that.
