Interesting Fact # 766 - Champagne

According to the Comite Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne (CIVC), France exports 150.9m bottles of champagne per year.

(The main importers are the UK: 38.9m bottles, the US: 21.7m bottles, Japan: 9.1m bottles, Russia: 1.03m bottles, and China: 656,000 bottles. Of course in the UK we have a saying, "Champagne taste on a beer pocket.")
