Nate, if you really want to learn about Champagne I would recommend you start with small, family owned brands. They are easily as good as (almost) anything from big boys and way better priced. See if you can pick up Agrapart, Henri Billiot, Duval-LeRoy, Paul Bara or Henriot. If you want to spend a bit more I can recommend you try Billecart-Salmon Rose.
And you really need to try Etoile rose as well (Napa), I had it next to some better French versions and for me it was easily the better wine at much better price.
