    Don’t touch those champagne bottles every day, where did you get that from?!

    “La part d’ange” (the part for the angels) is real though, so you sacrifice a bottle every like 15 years (depends) to top up a handfull of others.

      Onomatopoeia is talking about riddling.

      There is a step in champagne production where the bottles are stored upside down for a month or two and turned regularly. This is to bring all the sediments to the top of the bottle so it can be removed in the next step called disgorgement.
