Sparkling Wine

Sparkling wine is a drink that symbolises celebration, joy, and special moments. Its defining feature is the delicate effervescent bubbles, created through natural or artificial carbonation. Thanks to its freshness and lightness, sparkling wine is enjoyed around the world not only on festive occasions but also as a refreshing drink during the summer months.

How Sparkling Wine Is Made

It is most commonly made using the traditional method (secondary fermentation in the bottle – also known as the “méthode champenoise”) or the Charmat method (fermentation in large stainless-steel tanks). Both techniques give the wine its sparkle and liveliness, though the resulting taste can vary greatly – from delicate and complex wines to fresh and fruity styles.

Types of Sparkling Wine

The term sparkling wine covers several well-known styles originating from various wine regions:

Champagne – the original from France’s Champagne region, crafted using the traditional method, an iconic luxury wine.
Prosecco – light and refreshing sparkling wine from Italy’s Veneto region, made primarily from the Glera grape.
Cava – Spanish sparkling wine made using the traditional method, often offering excellent value for money.
Sekt – a term for German and Austrian sparkling wines, ranging from dry to sweeter styles.
Frizzante – lightly sparkling wine with gentle fizz, perfect for easy, refreshing drinking.
Spumante – Italian term for sparkling wine with more pronounced bubbles.
Non-alcoholic sparkling wine – the ideal choice for drivers or those avoiding alcohol who still want to enjoy a sparkling experience.

How to Enjoy Sparkling Wine

Serve well chilled, preferably in narrow flute glasses that help preserve the bubbles and aroma. It pairs wonderfully with light dishes, appetisers, fish, and desserts, or simply on its own for a special occasion.
