Considered by many to be the finest wines in the world, the wines of Champagne are imitated the world over and command higher prices than almost any other wine style. In this class we will explore how climate, soil and grape varieties impact style, the role of blending, the traditional method of making wine sparkle, and the role of autolysis in creating the distinctive Champagne character. This class offers a unique opportunity to compare and contrast several different Champagne styles.
About the instructor: Peter Gibson is owner of the wine-consulting firm Gibson Consulting. |
