Talk:Méthode champenoise

I think that both words of the title should be capitalized as Champagne is a proper noun Bob Palin 16:27, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Description of the actual method.
As far as I know is that when you ferment wine in the primary and secondary stages it leaves lees or sediment at the bottom of the fermentation container. In this method the fermentation in the bottle makes the same types of sediment and the removal of this sediment is done by inverting the necks of the bottles into a ice-salt mixture. The sediments and the wine surrounding them freeze, the bottle is opened and the plug of frozen sediment is shot out and then the bottle is somehow recapped.

I have no sources, this is third-hand, fourth-hand information and so I don't want to put it on the page until I can find some sources or someone who actually does this. and there is more to this method than I have stated above...anyone know exactly how this is done?
