Eric Hemer, the Company’s Senior VP and Director of Wine Education, outlines the many different sparkling wine options to help consumers choose the best bottle of bubbly for their tastes and wallets. “While the overall wine category continues to grow, sparkling wine is showing some of the strongest growth rates,” says Eric Hemer. “Not surprisingly, sparkling sales are strongest in the fourth quarter driven by holiday celebrations and gift-giving. Whether consumers are looking to host a holiday party at home, celebrate at their favorite restaurant or bar, or purchase a gift that is sure to please, sparkling wine is a festive beverage choice that will easily enhance any occasion, at every budget.” Champagne-France As the saying goes, “Not all sparkling wine is Champagne, but all Champagne is sparkling wine.” The most complex, expressive, compelling, historic and typically costliest example of sparkling wine comes from the cool climate and chalky soils of the Champagne region of northern France.

Addendum Regarding: the 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, As Published by the Society of Wine Educators
Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-wine-maps-2021/ Page 15: The third paragraph under the heading “TCA” has been updated to read as follows: TCA is highly persistent. If it saturates any part of a winery’s environment (barrels, cardboard boxes, or even the winery’s walls), it can even be transferred into wines that are sealed with screw caps or artificial corks. Thankfully, recent technological breakthroughs have shown promise, and some cork producers are predicting the eradication of cork taint in the next few years. In the meantime, while most industry experts agree that the incidence of cork taint has fallen in recent years, an exact figure has not been agreed upon. Current reports of cork taint vary widely, from a low of 1% to a high of 8% of the bottles produced each year. Page 16: the entry for Geranium fault was updated to read as follows: Geranium fault: An odor resembling crushed geranium leaves (which can be overwhelming); normally caused by the metabolism of sorbic acid (derived from potassium sorbate, a preservative) via lactic acid bacteria (as used for malolactic fermentation) Page 22: the entry under the heading “clone” was updated to read as follows: In commercial viticulture, virtually all grape varieties are reproduced via vegetative propagation.

Prosecco-Way Beyond Bubbles-Presented by Alan Tardi
Way Beyond Bubbles Terroir, Tradition and Technique in Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Alan Tardi Modern History The modern history of Prosecco begins in 1876 when enologist Giovanni Battista Cerletti founded the Scuola Enologico in Conegliano (an outgrowth of the Enological Society of the Treviso Province created in 1868). Carpenè’s groundbreaking La Vite e il Vino nella Wine maker and enologist work, Provincia di Treviso (1874), lists Antonio Carpenè (1838- a staggering number of 1902) played a significant different (mostly indigenous) role in the creation and grape varieties being cultivated operation of the school. in the Province of Treviso as well as many different viticultural systems and trellising methods (including training vines up into trees). Over in Piedmont, in 1895 Federico Martinotti, director of the Experimental Station of Enology in Asti (founded in January, 1872 by Royal Decree of Victor Emanuele Il, King of Italy) developed and patented the technique of conducting the second fermentation in large pressurized temperature- controlled receptacles. The technology was immediately and developed by the Conegliano school. [In 1910, Eugène Charmat adopted an existing device called the autoclave (which was invented in 1879 by a colleague of Louis Pasteur named Charles Chamberland) for the production of sparkling wine. The name stuck...] • By around 1910 the autoclave technology was was perfected for use in the production of sparkling wines in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene area. At about the same time, phylloxera broke out, followed shortly thereafter by WW I and economic depression. • It was not until the economic resurgence of Italy following WW II in the mid-1950s and ‘60s that the autoclave became diffused throughout the area of Conegliano Valdobbiadene and the modern day wine industry was born.

Prosecco On-Premise Training Guide
Prosecco on-premise training guide Prosecco is among Italy's largest wine categories and is recognized and well-loved by consumers around the world. With sales growth rates outpacing Champagne, Prosecco is an important wine to understand and include in your beverage program. This guide offers an opportunity for you to dig deeper into the region and discover how the local terroir (i.e., all of the vineyard and cellar factors that shape how a wine tastes) and winemaking techniques make different styles of Prosecco. This knowledge will help you develop a dialogue with your guests to build trust and confidence. Prosecco is the ultimate in affordable luxury, but there is more to Prosecco than brunch bubbles! 1 How is Prosecco made? While it’s often compared to Champagne, Prosecco is made using a different process where the bubbles are created in a pressurized tank rather than an individual bottle (the latter is the production method used in Champagne). The process goes by several names including Tank Method or Charmat Method, but Italians refer to it as the Martinotti Method. Italian Federico Martinotti developed and patented this sparkling wine method in 1895, but that design was improved upon by Frenchman Eugène Charmat in 1907, and the Charmat name stuck. Are all Proseccos sparkling? The vast majority of Prosecco is spumante (fully sparkling), but a tiny slice of production is made as a frizzante (a fizzy style with about 1-2.5 bars of pressure) and a tranquillo(still) version. The benefits of using the tank method are that it preserves the youthful fruity flavors (perfect for the aromatic Glera grape) whereas the traditional method used in Champagne and Franciacorta (frahn cha COR tah) produces more of a savory yeasty character in the wines.

All page numbers reference the 2019 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-maps-2020/ Page 12: the second paragraph concerning phenolics and polymerization was updated to read as follows: Over time, some phenolic compounds, particularly tannins and pigments, tend to polymerize, or combine into longer molecule chains. These chains may eventually become too heavy to stay suspended in the liquid and may drop out of the solution as sediment. This development has a major impact on the flavor of the wine and is one of the main results of the aging process. In many cases, the production of sediment in a properly-aged red wine renders a wine lighter in color and less astringent. However, it should be noted that new research indicates that polymerized tannins can possibly continue to alter in structure and may eventually break down during extended aging; thus is may be impossible to predict how the tannins in a well-aged wine will be perceived by the taster. Page 84: The statistics concerning the world wine production and trade have been updated as follows: • The global volume of wine produced in 2018 is estimated at 292 million hectoliters (mhl), the equivalent of nearly 3.2 billion cases of wine.
