According to the passage, not only did Dom Perignon invent champagne, he was also ...... .
Champagne was developed by a monk, Dom
Perignon, in the seventeenth century. He was a
blind man whose senses of taste and smell
were so fine that his advice on blending wine
was eagerly sought by wine-makers. He aimed
to produce a bubbly wine by corking the
bottles before the wine was completely
fermented. The carbon dioxide produced by
the fermentation was indeed kept in, but the
pressure was so great that most of the bottles
exploded. It was well into the 1800s before a
process was developed for producing stronger
bottles, allowing champagne to be produced in
large quantities. The monk was also the first
wine-maker to use cork for sealing bottles.
Prior to cork, bottles were closed with hemp
dipped in oil, which did not prevent the escape
of carbon dioxide and was unsuitable for
champagne.
