Sparkling
Sparkling wines are basically wines with bubbles and this type of wine, for many people, is commonly associated with festivities and celebrations. Sparkling Wines are more complicated to make than still wines and have higher acidity, more delicate flavor, their unique palate tingle and lower alcohol but they include some of the most versatile wines to accompany food. The traditional way of making sparkling wine begins with the harvest of the grape early in the season, followed by immediate pressing of the grapes, then followed by a primary and secondary fermentation process to boost the sugar and alcohol components. The acids in the grapes help to preserve the wine over the course of its development. Champagne and Sparkling Wine are synonymous but the word champagne can now only be used with wines produced from that region of France.
