"On Champagne is the wine book that every lover of the world's most
famous bubbles has been waiting for - whether they realised it or
not." - Club O Enologique "...if you love champagne, this is
another must-buy. And apologies for the terrible pun, but it is
genuinely true - this book fizzes with wonderful stuff." - Jancis
Robinson Champagne is never a simple glass of fizz... As soon as
the cork flies, the first sip reveals a wine of fascinating
complexity. For even the most modest non-vintage cuvee, a bevy of
blending decisions, multi layers of history and the incalculable
climate of this northern corner of France all come into play. In On
Champagne the thoughts, opinions and conclusions of the world's
finest champagne writers gather to reveal this wine's action-packed
trajectory from the myth of its accidental discovery - not in
France, we find, but in the cider cellars of England - to the
development of a high-tech champagne fit for space travel. It's a
journey that starts and ends with capturing that sparkle in a
bottle and along the way beguiles us with the nuances of its chalky
terrain, the determination of rebels from Ambonnay to Avize, and
the mystery of a champagne cellar under the sea. We meet the
pioneers who created the great champagnes of the past and the
personalities who are 'greening' this landscape, nurturing it
through climate change to shape the exquisite champagnes of the
future.
