A series by Peter Jauch in collaboration with 8008
People. Craft. Experience. Enjoyment.
Every glass of champagne tells a story — of origin, craft, and connection.
With CHAMPAGNE STORIES, Peter Jauch and 8008 create a series that brings people, handcraft, and passion together — always with a glass in hand.
Five evenings. Five perspectives on what makes champagne a story worth sharing.
Opening – Where Stories Begin
20 November 2025 | 18:30 h | 8008 Studio (Muellerstrasse 34 Zurich)
Every good story needs a beginning.
Peter Jauch introduces his book Champagner and opens the door to the region, style, and craftsmanship.
This year, we’re once again taking the occasion to toast the start of the Christmas season — after Lucy in the Sky lights up Bahnhofstrasse, we’ll continue the evening just a short stroll away at 8008 Studio. We are offering three different champagnes – exploring origin, character, and expression.
