SPARKLING WINE & CHAMPAGNe

Sparkling wines, sparkling wine or sparkling wine?

Sparkling wines - the three production methods

Don't be put off by the term! The "sparkling wine" is by no means a sparkling grape juice of questionable quality, as some normal consumers still believe. Even very noble drops such as champagne, Spumante or Cava are by definition sparkling wines. The food law simply includes all wine-based drinks with an alcohol content of at least 10% and a pressure of at least 3 bar. How carbon dioxide, which is responsible for that pressure, enters the bottle is of secondary importance at this point. In principle, three fundamental processes are distinguished in the production of sparkling wine

  • Fermentation in the bottle
  • Fermentation in the tank
  • Impregnation process

Sparkling wines from fermentation in the bottle

The classic fermentation in the bottle for the production ofsparkling wine   it was developed in the XNUMXth century by the Benedictine monk Pierre Pérignon, but according to the current state of research he did not invent it. The second fermentation, and therefore the enrichment with carbon dioxide, takes place, as the name suggests, in the bottle. In the classic method, also called Méthode champenoise, sugar and yeast are added to the base wine and the wine is poured into the bottle, which is then sealed. During the alcoholic fermentation, which now starts again, not only alcohol is produced but also carbon dioxide and therefore pressure.
