Umm, wasn't that my argument.

I wouldn't consider 6 months to be "aging a wine".

Champagne can be made from two red grapes and one white (Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay) but can also be made from only Chardonnay. Regardless, you can get a Champagne for as little as $100 that will develop for 20 years. Some of the best will continue much longer.
