Known for its bubbly finish, champagne is a refined luxury drink that pairs well with all meals from breakfast to dinner. Made from fermented grape juice, champagne comes in a variety of different forms which can be served either chilled or at room temperature according to personal preferences. And though there are an endless amount of champagne brands that serve quality options, not all brands actually source their champagne from Champenois vineyards, which are known to produce the highest quality and most expensive champagnes out there.

From 4,000 euro Dom Pèrignon to 16,000 euro Cristal Bruts, below are all of the most expensive champagnes in the world.

The Moët & Chandon Dom Pérignon Charles and Diana are priced at 3,666 euros each and are some of the most expensive champagne bottles in the world.
