Original Note:
Only sparkling wine from the Champagne region in France is allowed to be named Champagne. This is ruled in the Madrid treaty which the US didn’t sign before 2005. US wineries that called their sparkling wine Champagne before 2006 continue to be allowed to do so till today. https://www.purnoirewines.com/why-isnt-all-bubbly-wine-champagne/
