BUREAU DU CHAMPAGNE, USA ANNOUNCES 2024 TOP 10 BARS AND RESTAURANTS FOR ENJOYING CHAMPAGNE

The third annual list arrives ahead of Champagne Day 2024 on October 25

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bureau du Champagne, USA today announced its annual list of the Top 10 Bars and Restaurants where Champagne plays a starring role. The list, now in its third year, recognizes establishments that elevate and celebrate the uniqueness of the sparkling wine that comes only from Champagne, France.

Released in advance of Champagne Day 2024, the list showcases Champagne standouts in every U.S. region. It recognizes restaurants and bars that take special care to offer Champagnes from a wide variety of producers, list them properly on their menus, and serve them with élan.

"We received nominations for spectacular bars and restaurants across the country, and selected from them a list of destinations that embody the spirit of Champagne," said Lori Russo, Director of the Bureau du Champagne, USA. "While these restaurants and bars differ in style, spanning the spectrum from fine dining to fried chicken, they all have one thing in common: they understand what makes Champagne special. For that, we couldn't be prouder to raise a glass to them on Champagne Day and the rest of the year."

The full list of this year's featured bars and restaurants can be found below in alphabetical order:

• Apéro, Washington, DC: Apéro's list of more than 700 wines places special emphasis on Champagne. The intimate setting in DC's popular Georgetown neighborhood is an ideal spot to explore an extensive list of Champagnes smartly organized by style.
