Sparkling wines

Sparkling wine, also known as ‘pearls in a glass’, is a fascinating and refreshing pleasure that brings festivity and joy to any occasion. These sparkling drops are a feast for the senses and reflect the art and science of winemaking in a special way. The production of sparkling wine is an art that requires patience and precision.

The process begins with the selection of first-class grapes, which are carefully harvested and pressed to extract the best juice. Fermentation transforms the grape juice into wine, releasing carbon dioxide that normally escapes. In sparkling wine production, however, this carbon dioxide is trapped in the bottle, creating the characteristic perlage.
The classic method of producing sparkling wine, also known as the Champagne method, involves a second fermentation in the bottle. During this time, the sparkling wine develops its fine flavours and elegant texture. After maturation, the lees are removed and the sparkling wine is given its final bottle size and closure. Sparkling wines come in different styles, from dry to sweet, and can be made from different grape varieties. The best-known sparkling wines are Champagne from France, Prosecco from Italy and Cava from Spain. Each region brings its own character and tradition to sparkling wine production, resulting in a diverse range of aromas and flavours. Sparkling wine is the epitome of celebration and elegance.

A glass of sparkling wine opens the door to festive moments, be it on festive occasions, anniversaries or simply to brighten up everyday life. The sparkling pleasure stimulates the palate, refreshes the senses and leaves a lasting impression. Sparkling wine is more than just a drink – it is a symbol of joie de vivre and enjoyment that magically emphasises the special moments in life.
