The area is best known for the production of the sparkling white wine that bears the region›s name. EU law and the laws of most countries reserve the term «Champagne» exclusively for wines that come from this region located about 100 miles (160 km) east of Paris. The viticulture boundaries of Champagne are legally defined and split into five wine producing districts within the administrative province: Aube, Côte des Blancs, Côte de Sézanne, Montagne de Reims, and Valley de la Marne. The towns of Reims and Épernay are the commercial centers of the area.

Statement of Principles It is important that readers understand how I collect and evaluate the information that is reported in the pages of Burghound.com (the tasting notes and information are the sole responsibility of the author). • I am personally responsible for all of my business expenses without exception. This includes airfare, hotels and effectively all of my meals. The purpose is as clear as it is simple: No conflicts of interest. I do not accept nor do I seek any subsidy, in any form, from anybody. • Sample bottles are accepted for evaluation and commentary, much as book reviewers accept advance copies of new releases. I insist, however, that these sample bottles represent the final wines to be sold under that particular label. • Finished, bottled wines are assigned scores as these wines are market-ready. Wines tasted from barrel, however, are scored within a range. This reflects the reality that a wine tasted from barrel is not a finished product. • Wines are evaluated within the context of their appellations. Simply put, that means I expect a grand cru Burgundy to reflect its exalted status.

  • 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.

  • The Buyer's New Zealand Wine Debate
    The Buyer’s New Zealand Wine Debate In association with: The Buyer’s New Zealand Debate Setting The Scene Arguably New Zealand’s most successful exports over the last 10 years have been its rugby players and the growing reputation of its wine. Whilst the former have gone on to be World Champions in both 2011 and 2015, the country’s wines have enjoyed similar global success with export sales up 236% since 2006. A jump from 57.8 million litres in 2006 to 213m litres this year. The total tonnage of grapes crushed is also up 136% to 436,000 from 185,000 in 2006 (New Zealand Winegrowers). Such has been the popularity of New Zealand wine that anyone who invested in the sector over the last year 10 years would have seen their earnings double with an average yearly growth of 8.5%. But that does not necessarily mean all is fine and dandy in the land of the long white cloud. Whilst its wine sales have boomed in the UK over the last 10 years it has done so in two very distinct and different markets. On the one hand there is big box office New Zealand. The market buyers and consumers flock to every year for the latest mass volume, easy drinking, well-loved wines that fly off supermarket shelves and mainstream casual dining and pub wine lists. Then there are the more independent cinema, art house releases from New Zealand. These are rather less well known, and rely on a small, but loyal audience. It is arguably this second market which truly reflects the unique style and diversity of wines being made in New Zealand, in both its north and south islands.

  • Bob Campbell MW
    THE ANDRÉ L SIMON LECTURE 2019 Presented by Bob Campbell MW on Sunday 10th March in the Stamford Plaza Hotel, Auckland, New Zealand “Development of New Zealand Wine Industry 1954, when the Auckland branch was formed, to present day” THEN (1954) In 1957 New Zealand produced 2.7 million litres of wine, 85% of which was fortified – today production is more than 100 times that volume. Back then it was difficult to enjoy wine with a restaurant meal. Michael Cooper said ‘The custom was to smuggle in a bottle and hide it under the table. Some restaurants took the wine away and decanted it into soft-drink bottles in case of a police raid.’ I recall enjoying a 15-year-old Penfolds St Henri Claret in coffee mugs! The breweries had control over wine sales and the hotel restaurants, to keep their liquor license, were obliged to serve food, but the restaurants had to be closed by 8 o’clock, and many closed as early as 6pm - these were dark times. I can remember I worked for a brief time in a wine bar in London doing my Overseas Experience (OE) when a very elegant English gentlemen customer and I began chatting away, and he asked me if I was a New Zealander and I said yes. I asked ‘Have you been to New Zealand?’ and he said, ‘Oh yes, only once. Not a happy experience actually.’ He then explained he was on the way to Australia, and had a stopover in Christchurch, and he had asked for an early morning call so he could meet his flight.

  • Trade and Terroir. the Political Economy of the World's First Geographical Indications
    Trade and Terroir. The Political Economy of the World’s First Geographical Indications Giulia Meloni 1,2 and Johan Swinnen 1,2,3 1 LICOS Center for Institutions and Economic Performance & Department of Economics University of Leuven (KU Leuven) 2 Centre for European Policy Studies 3 Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies European University Institute Version: August 10, 2018 Abstract The world’s first geographical indications (GIs) were in the wine sector and focused on the delineation of the location of production, the ‘terroirs’: the Burgundy wines in the fifteenth century, the Port wines and Chianti wines in the eighteenth century, and the Champagne wines in the early twentieth century. We analyze the causes for the introduction of these GIs (‘terroirs’) and for changes in their delineation (expansion) later on. Trade played a very important role in the creation of the ‘terroirs’ but the mechanisms through which trade stimulated GIs varied. For the Port and Chianti GIs it was exports to foreign markets (Britain) that were crucial; for Burgundy it was domestic trade to Paris; and for the Champagne GI it was not exports but pressure from wine imports and new wine regions that played a crucial role. For the expansions of the GIs later in history, other factors seem to have been more important. Expansions of the GIs in the years and centuries after their introduction followed (1) major changes in political power; (2) the spread of a new philosophy in liberal and free markets across Europe; (3) and infrastructure investments which opened up markets and made exports cheaper from “new” producers.
