Champagne, a symbol of decadence, luxury and pompousness, actually is a product from Champagne, a region in France that is known for creating high-quality sparkling wines. One of the most popular champagne brands in Germany however comes from Freyburg which is considered the German capital of champagne-growing. Founded in 1856, Rotkäppchen, which is the German name for Red Riding Hood, certainly became a go-to brand for the occasional champagne consumer. We all watched Rotkäppchen’s legendary television spot featuring a brunette beauty wearing a magnificent red dress and passionately and lovingly presenting her lover a bottle of cooled Rotkäppchen champagne. Nevertheless, most of us probably didn’t know that the champagne is so appreciated by the German high society that the German military leadership concluded an exclusive contract with Rotkäppchen to enjoy certain privileges.
The Rotkäppchen champagne has since then never ceased to give us unforgettable moments of indulgence and joy. Available in different variations, the champagne is certainly the perfect beverage for a special occasion. Those of you, who have always wondered how the magic behind Rotkäppchen works, should visit the champagne cellars where tours are regularly offered.
