The Season to Sparkle
T
eam Sommelier India wishes you a joyful Holiday Season and a Sparkling New Year! The issue in your hands is filled with ‘sparkling’ stories (pardon the poor pun) but, truly, there’s a great deal to interest you in this issue along with several features on Champagne and its cousin, Sparkling Wine. Champagne is often considered the ultimate drink of success and celebration. Champagne is also a wonderful way to soothe yourself when you’re feeling low. As Napoleon famously said, “In victory, you deserve Champagne, in defeat, you need it.â€? Interestingly, Lord Maynard Keynes, on his deathbed declared, “My only regret is that I did not drink more Champagne.â€? So there must be something special about champagne and I’d include sparkling wine in the general category. However, as with any wine, drink it consciously. Be aware of what you are drinking so that you know what you like. Be discriminating in the best sense of the word, which is not the same as being a snob. Among Indian companies we have Bouvet Ladubay producing some superb sparkling wines in the Loire region of France. Indage Vintners pioneered its production in Maharashtra with Marquis de Pompadour. Then came Sula Brut, Vinsura Brut and Zampa Salon. And by this time next year we could be toasting the Holiday Season with a home-grown sparkler produced by MoĂŤt & Chandon. Champagne (and most sparkling wine) is made using the Methode Champenoise, which requires two fermentations, and adds the sparkle to the wine. For the second fermentation the wine is moved from the tank and bottled with extra sugar and yeast. The yeast consumes the sugar and creates bubbles of carbon dioxide plus alcohol in the bottles. At this stage the bottles are capped with a “crownâ€? cap as in common sodas or colas. When the winemaker decides it’s ready (which could take from one to three years) the yeast and sediment are removed by “riddlingâ€? or rotating the bottles a little every day, until they are almost vertical and the residue has collected in the neck of the bottle. It is then frozen and the plug of residue “disgorgedâ€?. A “dosageâ€? of Champagne is finally added to top up the bottles before they are corked. And now, to go back to the issue, I hope you have as much fun reading it as we did putting it together. Happy New Year!

„ Austrian Quality Revolution The A ustrian wine industry is in the midst of a quality revolution. W inemakers are focused on regional positioning within the new D A C norms. But perhaps a more substantial positive is their effort in identifying a point of departure in their style. In the long run, this will help the average consumer in appreciating the distinct character of the terroir; and also successfully minimise if not comprehensively avoid parallels to German wines. In my opinion, crisp Gruner V eltliners from the WHUUDFHV RI :DFKDX DUH PRUH WKDQ TXDOLÀ HG WR À OO XS the mid-priced void in our emerging wine market. :LWK WKHLU EODWDQW DOPRVW UDPEXQFWLRXV PLQHUDO À QLVK complemented by refreshing acidity, I would not hesitate to pair one with our varied seafood delicacies.

Personally, I am quite convinced that it’ll be well worth the wait. Sipri, via email
