You might be interested to know that champagne produced in California must
carry the appellation "California Champagne" on the label.  I guess that is
some tribute to the geographical Champagne.  But California has advanced the
science of vinniculture (sp?) to such a level that the French may be ready
to start sporting the name California on their labels.
