Champagne producing area is one of the top ten legal producing areas in France and the northernmost producing area in France, which is famous for producing champagne (sparkling wine).
3. According to the law, only sparkling wine brewed with the specified grape varieties and according to the specified production method and technology in the champagne area of France can be labeled as champagne. In the United States, due to historical reasons, some local sparkling wines still use the word "champagne" on the label; In the European Union and many countries, the word champagne is protected by the Madrid Agreement signed in 189 1, and can only be used in the corresponding areas of France's naming control (AOC) and products that meet the relevant standards. The Treaty of Versailles signed after World War I also reiterated this point ... Canada, Australia and Chile also signed relevant provisions with Europe to protect them.
As an aperitif in Europe, sparkling wine should be chilled to 8~ 12 degrees before drinking. For Americans with heavy tastes, they prefer to drink dessert after meals. Most people will choose a thin and tall champagne glass when drinking sparkling wine. Mr. Qi said that you can watch the level of bubbles in detail, but the narrow mouth of the cup makes people unable to enjoy the charming fragrance of sparkling wine. It is recommended to use a tulip cup with a slightly wider mouth.
5. There is a lot of pressure in the sparkling wine bottle, so when opening the bottle, you should not point the bottle at people. You should press the cork to open the wire, then hold the wine bottle in one hand and gently turn the cork with a piece of cloth in the other. Hearing a light sound, the wine won't fall down even if it is well opened. If the pressure is too high, it is best to remove the wire and the cork at the same time. In addition, you can cover the cork with a tablecloth to increase the resistance. If you haven't finished drinking, you'd better plug the bottle at once, tie it tightly with a wire buckle, or seal it with a special champagne stopper. You'd better not brush your teeth before drinking sparkling wine, otherwise you won't feel its aroma.
6. Sparkling wine is a kind of wine rich in carbon dioxide, which is suitable for various festive occasions. After a large package of sparkling wine is opened, if you can't finish it all at once, you'd better plug the bottle mouth immediately and tie it tightly with iron wire to avoid the escape of carbon dioxide gas in the wine and affect the fresh and refreshing feeling of sparkling wine. If there is a refrigerator, it is best to put it in the refrigerator after the bottle is stuffed, and refrigerate it at low temperature (but not frozen) and drink it within one week.
7. You don't need to shake to drink sparkling wine. When smelling the wine, you can put the glass under your nose and smell the wine in the glass gently and carefully, and repeat it several times. The more times you smell it, you will naturally appreciate all kinds of fragrance.
