How about renaming this Sparkling wine production, given that it's the same process used around the world, and it would allow incorporation of the otherwise-stubby Charmat process and some comparison of the different methods

I'd rather rename it Méthode Champenoise or Méthode Traditionelle. Although getting rid of the stubby Charmat process article would be nice, this topic is really important enough to be on its own. Maybe include a small section in Sparkling wine about production that links to this article and includes the important notes about the charmat process? --- The Bethling^(Talk) 03:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm torn on this one. The article originated as a splinter from the Champagne (wine) article and the title was directly linked to that. I like the title Méthode Champenoise, since that is what the majority of Sparkling wine produces actually put on the bottle. However, I can see editors objecting to that title on the use english principle. Bethling suggestion is one to think about but I am in favor of merging the Charmat article somewhere.
