Book Synopsis But First, Champagne by : David White
Download or read book But First, Champagne written by David White and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both the region of Champagne and its wines have always been associated with prestige and luxury. Knowledgeable wine enthusiasts have long discussed top Champagnes with the same reverence they reserve for the finest wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But everyday Americans usually keep Champagne way back on the high shelf. It’s for big celebrations, send-offs, and wedding toasts and, more often than not, is bought by the case. The good stuff costs plenty—and frankly, rarely seems worth the price. Today, though, Champagne is in the midst of a renaissance—no longer to be unjustly neglected. Over the past decade, an increasing number of wine enthusiasts have discovered the joys of grower Champagne—wines made by the farmers who grow the grapes. Thanks to a few key wine importers and America’s newfound obsession with knowing where food comes from, these shipments have been climbing steadily. In But First, Champagne, author David White details Champagne’s history along with that of its wines, explains how and why the market is changing, and profiles the region’s leading producers. This book is essential reading for wine enthusiasts, adventurous drinkers, foodies, sommeliers, and drinks professionals. With a comprehensive yet accessible overview of the region, its history, and its leading producers, But First, Champagne will demystify Champagne for all. From the foreword: "Smart, entertaining, and valuable . . . one of those rare wine books that should appeal to people just getting into Champagne and longtime Champagne obsessives." —Ray Isle, Executive Wine Editor, Food & Wine

The wines registered in this Guide have been tasted by experts during several "Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants" (Paris, Lion, Nice, Lille etc.); some wines have been anonymously evaluated in businesses themselves, whereas others have been officially judged after selection in wineries. Evaluation is a result from team work, where a team tasted wines for about six months. The "Tasting Commission" is made up of winetasters, chefs and amateurs.
