Etymology: Named after Eugène Charmat, one of the inventors. Head templates: {{en-prop|def=1}} the Charmat method
  1. A technique for producing sparkling wine, in which the wine is mixed in a stainless steel pressure tank with sugar and yeast.

When the sugar is converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide, the yeast is filtered and removed, and the wine containing the dissolved carbon dioxide is transferred from the closed reactor vessel into bottles.
