On the commercial growing side, there are now approximately 500 vineyards across the country each producing improving in quality wines (mostly sparkling) with many located in southern counties. There are countless fields full of grapevines across the country with highly experienced winemakers giving us medal winning wines to choose from.

Potted Vines in your Garden

When it comes to growing grapevines at home then we can be quite confident that we can likewise be as successful as the professionals. If it is simply grape harvesting then yes we can grow grapes in our gardens when we follow some basic guidelines:

• Can I plant grape seeds? Well yes you can and if you grow them indoors or within a greenhouse initially then there is no reason why you can not plant a grape seed and see the fruits of your green finger labour.
• What grapes (grapevine) can I plant in England? We can split grapevines in to two sections which as ‘wine grapes’ and ‘dessert grapes’. There are many varieties you can choose from that will be white (light green) or black (very dark red) and it is advisable that you check which will suit your climate (location) then best. Many garden centres will stock grapevines so it is best to ask their advice for your location.
• Where to plant grapevines? Outdoors is the most popular location and this can be either in large pots or in the ground. You can also plant vines in greenhouse / conservatory. A well drained soil is the best place to plant them and during the dormant months for the grapevine (October to March). Choose a spot that is warm, sheltered, and receives good sunlight – avoid windy locations.
• How to plant grapevines: They will ideally already be of around 30cm in height and the stem at least pencil size thickness. The best months for planting are February and March. Place them in to the ground (ideally with general purpose fertiliser) and be sure to unpack the roots when replacing back the soil. Have in place a support system for the vines so they can be trained. If planting multiple vines you should give them a spacing of 1 metre between each.
• How to maintain grapevines: As with many plants, it is all about the maintenance from watering to pruning. Though grapevines are known for being quite robust plants and perform better when challenged, they do require care and attention as they are also quite vulnerable. Some grapevines are known to live up to 100 years or more though most cases will see them with a lifetime of 25-35 years (especially for harvesting of grapes). Make sure that you train your grapevine upwards initially and then how you wish from there (always remember that the more stems / leaves you have then the more energy the vine will have to distribute to them over your grapes). Pruning is important as the vine grows so that you can steer the vine in the direction you require (removing unwanted shoots) and removal of a % of leaves will also put attention / energy to growth. Water at least weekly and especially during dry months.  Keep a watch out for fungal diseases and insects which will mostly be evident on the leaves and grapes.

Common Problems – From RHS.org.uk

“Grapevines are prone to fungal diseases including powdery mildew (especially in hot, dry weather or in crowded sites with poor air circulation), grey mould (Botrytis) and downy mildew.

Birds and wasps can severely damage crops. Other potential pests include brown scale, woolly vine or currant scale and the fruit fly spotted wing drosophila (SWD).

Vines are also susceptible to nutrient deficiencies, particularly magnesium deficiency, and the physiological disorder shanking.”

Sparkling Wine and sweet treats can go hand in hand, creating an even more delicious combination, bringing out hidden flavours which have just lingered in the background waiting to light up your taste buds with their hidden talents.

We have 5 different Christmas treats to enjoy and two different Sparkling Wines to see which work best with which, please join us on our venture to discover which will pair best and hopefully receive a place by your side this Christmas.

The Sweet Sparkling Wines

Heinz Theodor Schroeder settled down in Patagonia in 1927 and began working in the wine industry, their winery and vineyards are located in San Patricio del Chañar, Patagonia at the heart of the southernmost wine region of Argentina. Chief enologist Leonardo Puppato helped in the technical design of the winery and also conducts the winemaking practices.

During the construction of the winery’s building, fossilized bones of a large herbivorous dinosaur were discovered. This became a massive part of Familia Schroeder, with them specially designing a cellar house to showcase the original bones in the exact place they were discovered. After several years of study, the paleontologists concluded that the fossils belonged to a new species, so the dinosaur received a new name: Panamericansaurus Schroederi, in recognition of the family contribution to the excavation works.

Name: Panamericansaurus Schroederi
Age: 75 million years (Campanian – Maastrichtian). Late Cretaceous.
Systematics: Sauropoda. Titanosauridae.
Environment: Coastal plain of shallow seas.
Length: 10 to 12 meters.
Diet: Herbivore.

Christmas time is the busiest time globally for sparkling wine sales thanks to the many festive get togethers we have planned both at home, work and in bars/restaurants and not forgetting New Years Eve celebrations as we welcome in the year 2022.

“It is said that we enjoy some 200 million glasses of Champagne at Christmas and this number is greatly added to as we lead up to and enjoy New Years Eve celebrations – Champagne (or any other sparkling wine) is the one wine that can identity mostly with celebrations so it is unexpected that sales peak each year over the Christmas period.”

We must not forget that sparkling wine is not purely Champagne, in fact, this small region of France (despite having global fame) is only a smaller percentage of the global sparkling wine production each year. We are all familiar with Prosecco (Italy) though we also are able to enjoy the fizzy delights from England, Spain (Cava), South Africa (Cap Classic), Slovenia, Cremant (France), Canada, USA, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand and much more.

So, what about some fabulous sparkling wines for Christmas 2021? I say let’s rock & roll with some Trophy Winning English sparklers to get the mood firmly in the swing:

How to shop for sparkling wine
First, you should know that all sparkling wines have a rounded flavour. This means that you should be in a position to taste beyond the bubbliness in every bottle. The quality and richness in flavour depending on the price of the bottle you buy. Therefore, you should be cautious whenever you want to buy a bottle of sparkling wine, not to compromise flavour for the price. You can get a bottle that goes for less than $10 with great taste. All you need to know is how to pick the best. Here are some tips.

Know the difference
Can you differentiate between Champagne, Cava, Prosecco, and other sparkling wine? By knowing the difference, you can choose what you want based on quality and price. Here is an overview.

Champagne
Champagne is made in France using traditional Champagne grapes. Additionally, a bottle of Champagne is made following the traditional winemaking technique that involves fermenting the liquid in the bottle and not in a tank. Champagne is always pricey because of the higher price of grapes used in making it. Champagne is the least sweet compared to Cava and Prosecco, but it has the finest bubbles.

Cava
Cava is a sparkling bottle of wine made in Spain. The wine is fermented within the bottle like Champagne. However, Cava is made using less expensive grapes, making it more affordable than Champagne. Cava is sweeter than Champagne and also has finer bubbles than Prosecco.

Prosecco
Prosecco is made in Italy using the Charmat technique. This technique means that the wine is fermented in a tank first before being bottled. Prosecco is the sweetest of the three and also has the coarsest bubbles.

Sparkling wine
Sparkling wine is a comprehensive term used to describe all types of fizzy vinos that are not made using the traditional techniques of making wine. Additionally, sparkling wine can come from any country.

How much should you spend?
Sparkling wine comes in a wide range of prices. There are expensive bottles like Champagne while others are less expensive. Therefore, you need to determine the price point that suits your budget. Any bottle between 11 and 15 pounds should be a good starting point if you are a first-timer. However, you can always save money when buying wine if you keep an eye on discounts and festive offers. Sites like NetVoucherCodes.co.uk offer insightful resources you can use to find the best deals and other information on how to pick the best sparkling wine without breaking the bank.

Consider the size
The size of the bottle is a decision you make depending on your plans. However, you should always consider the size of the bubbles before you buy a bottle of sparkling wine. Bubble size is a measure of quality. In this case, the finer, the better. Look out for tiny, wispy bubbles with light and frothy textures. Therefore, the next time you buy a bottle of Champagne and notice large bubbles, know it might not be really Champagne.

Choose green bottles
Excessive light can compromise the quality of the wine. That is why you will notice most sparkling wine packaged in dark bottles. You do not want to buy “cooked” wine. Therefore, always go green with your bottle. The darker, the better.

Consider the dryness level
A bottle of sparkling wine is often labelled with words like ‘dry’ or ‘brut’ that indicate the level of dryness. These terminologies indicate the wine’s dryness level, which is determined by the amount of residual sugar. Since residual sugar in wine is measured in grams per litre, the terminologies used can be a bit confusing for first-timers. Here is an overview of the four dryness levels you are more likely to encounter when buying a bottle of sparkling wine.

Extra Brut
This is the driest form of sparkling wine you can get in the market. The amount of residual sugar in brut extra should be less than six grams in every litre. This aspect means that yeast used during the fermentation process has eaten most of the residual sugar. Cava is an excellent example of sparkling wine that comes in the form of brut extra.

Brut
Brut is the most popular form of sparkling wine you will get in the market. Brut is dry with a hint of sweetness that comes with less than 12 grams of residual sugar per litre. Champagne is the most popular sparkling wine in the brut range.

Extra Dry
The extra dry range is dry, but not like the first two categories. It comes with a slight hint of sweetness due to leftover residual sugar from fermentation. Prosecco is an excellent example of wine in this category.

Demi-Sec
Demi-Sec is the sweetest wine category and is often used with a dessert. The taste of this wine range comes with an obvious amount of sweetness. Demi-Sec can have as much as 50 grams of residual sugar per litre. Champagne is rarely made in this range, though you can find some bottles made in the category.

The bottom line
Whether you are going for a family gathering or holidaying with the love of your life, sparkling wine is good for your health. Additionally, this is a drink for all occasions. Sparkling wine is made from all over the world and comes with noticeable bubbles.

Just in time for your holidays, this guide has rounded up some tips to help you choose the best bottle of sparkling wine. Just a reminder, any Champagne is sparkling wine, but not all sparkling wine can be Champagne.

The problem lays both in those trying to imitate and / or to copy (counterfeit) products – It is all well and good producing something not quite too dissimilar such as copying colours / shapes / fonts / logos so to tempt in buyers simply drawn in by the look, many times these products are challenged and in court eliminated from the market. There is nothing wrong by producing a competitor to a leading brand, how close you sail to copying them will depend on how exposed you are legally should you be seen as replicating with financial gain.

Producing counterfeit items is of course a whole different crime and this is purely to deceive the buyer as well as financially effecting the original producer. From Picasso’s to Lamborghinis, counterfeits exist which makes who you purchase from and what authenticity they come with ever so important.

We must also consider that detection is becoming harder as better counterfeiting methods evolve. We are not simply talking about a plastic counterfeit Rolex watch here, counterfeiters are producing replicas that are only detectable by the makers themselves fooling most consumers. Though many fake items are relatively cheap, the more expensive items that suffer from counterfeiting could be costing consumers £1,000’s.

Fake Champagne

Even in the wine sector, the subject is rife with many news stories on seized counterfeits. These can be smaller discoveries such as a handful of bottles rebranded in a restaurant to more professional set ups of 1,000’s of bottles produced on factory lines. Most occasions it is a cheaper Champagne or sparkling wine (even perry) that is the substituted expensive Champagne – Bottles and labels to include capsules and corks are slightly easier to reproduce on mass and of usually good enough quality to fool most consumers.

“A restaurant owner in West Bromwich is to be interviewed by officials following the seizure of 16 bottles of fake Moët & Chandon from his restaurant.” source thecaterer

Counterfeit Wines – A big problem in the wine industry

Some wineries are trying to combat the forgers by increasing the security in production of their wines to include trackable bottles, chips under labels and tamper proof capsules. Authorities to include the le Comité Interprofessionnel du vin de Champagne continue to work tirelessly to worm out fraudsters and protect the identity and quality of Champagne with global investigations frequently in process.

The biggest problem, and one which the FBI suffered when investigating Rudy Kurniawan, is that wineries are likely not want to get involved with court cases and of course the exposure and publicity for having fake wines out under their name – Sometimes wine professionals / buyers are also not wanting of the potential negative to their career PR.

How to spot fake Champagne:

Depending on how and why you are coming by a fake Champagne, be it you have purchased in bulk (ie for a wedding) or acquired a vintage Champagne at auction or maybe simply you are about to enjoy a glass at your local restaurant – There are ways to spot fakes:

• Taste – If you are familiar with Champagne and especially if you know the quality and standard of the label you are being served then you should be able to spot a problem. This would not be a fault as in the wine being corked, it would be that you can taste the difference and especially if served a lesser quality Champagne or another sparkling wine substitute such as a Cremant / Cava / Spumante etc.
• Bottle – Many finer Champagnes will come in a specially shaped bottle so make sure you are familiar with the latest design or the design relevant to the vintage.
• Packaging – Check the packaging to include label (back and front) and the neck of the bottle (foil / capsule / cork). Real Champagne will have the name of the producer on the label and also address to at least include the name of town or village. Check the likes of fonts / colours / logos as many copies are just a tiny bit different. Check also for the Professional Registration Code – NM or RM in the lower corner of the label followed by numbers.
• Showing it’s age – Does the bottle show it’s age especially if it is a vintage of many years ago. Does it look all too new or maybe it looks falsely worn / dirty / damaged? Study the bottle carefully and question anything that does not quite add up (especially if paying out big money).
• Weighing everything up – Sometimes you need to go with what your head says and then again sometimes it is a gut feeling that decides for us – Either way, if in doubt or it’s the good old too good to be true situation then politely decline the purchase. You should weigh up all the facts such as who you are buying from, the price, the rarity of the wine(s), the condition it is presented to you in.
• Check online – Many finer wines are spoken about online to include photos and videos. A quick check of the Champagne in question will likely bring up results in your search engine so take time to compare images and other relevant facts that are shared – At least take your mobile phone with you when purchasing Champagne.
• Second opinions – Sometimes you may wish to get a second opinion. If you are making a big purchase then the vendor should not have a concern if you are wanting of a second opinion.

“It is claimed that Dr Christopher Merrett, a 17th century cider maker from Gloucester, first devised the fermentation method which gives champagne its sparkle as well as inventing the hefty bottles that are needed to prevent the highly pressurised liquid from exploding.” glassofbubbly

Even though the origination of Champagne, the holy grail of sparkling wine to many, was discovered by chance by Dom Perignon in 1693 with his famous quote of ‘come quickly I am tasting the stars‘, the English are said to have invented the famous bubble in wine back in 1662. These facts are highly contested and disputed, but also we can add to the mixing pot that the earliest recorded sparkling wine is a Blanquette de Limoux that was invented by Benedictine monks in the Abbey of Saint-Hilaire, near Carcassonne, France in 1531.

The History of English Sparkling Wine

If the discovery of bubbles in wine can be awarded to England then we must date its history back to 1662, but the real history does not really take shape until some 300 years later. Prior to this though:

It is said that the Romans had tried to grow vines in England and without much success. Though they liked their wines and historical records shows many archaeological wine evidence on homeland excavations, they would have imported from Europe the main bulk of their wine consumption.

The Domesday Book, the Norman period, (1085-6) shares with us records that there were over forty vineyard locations in the country.

There after, though some records show an attempt to grow and produce wine, England was very much out of favour of making its own wine and instead concentrated on the importation channels from France and Italy.

English Sparkling Wine Production houses – Bolney Wine Estate

Commercially produced wines really did not take hold until after the second world war. The cool climate grape growing regions, vines and expertise were being discovered, developed and positively evolving. Though most production was for family and friends of the growers and to sell locally, the ground work for more serious and commercial wine quality was being set.

Over the last few decades natural climate change has favoured the English terroir (southern wine regions of England only 200 miles from Champagne) with warmer temperatures. Not only are we now receiving the climate that was once blessing the Champagne region we also have always had the ground that is very much similar with limestone and chalk valleys in Kent, Sussex, Surrey – So what was once in Champagne is transferring its way to England…

Of course, Champagne has its history and importantly much experience and knowledge which can not be bought. Family Champagne growers can have generations of knowledge in their blends with a far greater understanding of their vineyards and vines. England is still playing catch up though we are now attracting the expertise over from the continent with some wine makers here now being ex Champagne producers.

What was once seen as the butt of many jokes, English wine (and more so English Sparkling Wine today) has really caught up with other famous sparkling wines from across the world. In recent years new and innovative wineries have launched and evolved with many winning top industry awards – in 2021 the world’s best sparkling wine was an English Sparkling Wine after several days of judging in London (Fox & Fox winery in Sussex)

Planting new vines – Jenkyn Place in May 2018

It’s only constraint today being that the production levels (though growing annually) is still very much behind other old world wine country amounts – Annual Sparkling Wine production in England (over 70% of wine made in England is sparkling) from some 600 + wineries is around 4 million bottles. Many wineries will be producing between 20,000 to 50,000 bottles annually with fewer producing six figure amounts annually. Most of the production is consumed here in the UK though global distribution is growing as the positive rumours on the quality expands.

Back in 1951 at Hambledon in Hampshire, with vines planted by Major-General Sir Guy Salisbury-Jones, the journey of wine production to sell commercially began. It wasn’t unit the 1960’s were in full swing that further expansion really took hold across the country as confidence in this sector grew. From this era onwards and especially from the year 2,000 and beyond the growth of vineyards has continued with greater confidence, higher quality and greater profits.

It can be said that the best way to make a small fortune in the wine business is to start with a big fortune, but English Sparkling Wine gives many home growers a greater possibility of success. Compared to other famous sparkling wine regions and countries of the world, especially Champagne, the land value is far less in England mostly due to fact that you can produce wine in any and most locations whereas the Champagne wine growing region is highly restrictive. An hectare in the Champagne region can cost around £1,000,000 and yet a hectare in England could cost £100,000 (vines planted and established).

The Worlds Best Sparkling Wine 2021 – Fox & Fox 2015 Paxton & Whitfield Blend

Moving towards the future it is certainly very rosy for English Sparkling Wines. With a growing reputation and quality the global markets are very keen to introduce them to their markets to run alongside Champagne and the likes of Trento DOC, Cava, Method Cap Classique and other traditional method production sparkling wines. Similar price points, equalling qualities and more to come tells me that its not only going to be a great cup of tea that we are famed for, we can make a damn good glass of bubbly too…

So what exactly does Methode Cap Classique (MCC) mean?

“Methode Cap Classique (MCC) is the name used to refer to South African sparkling wines made by the traditional method. The term was adopted in 1992 in response to the ban on the use of the words ‘Champagne’ and ‘Champenoise’ for anything other than the bottle-fermented wine from the Champagne region in France. MCC are considered a premium category in South Africa and the term ‘Methode Cap Classique’ will always be written on the label to represent their classification.” glassofbubbly

Made in the same way that Champagne is, and also Franciacorta / English Sparkling Wine / Cava / Cremant and more, South African sparkling wines offer great depth of flavours thanks to their terroir (influences of Atlantic & Indian oceans) and grape varieties including Chenin Blanc (most commonly grown), Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier. Sparkling wine is also produced according to the Charmat method and, very recently, a few wines have been made in the Méthode Ancestrale.

“South Africa has approximately 100,000 hectares of vineyards which is more or less the same as the area of the Bordeaux wine region of France.“

Graham Beck – Babylonstoren – Paul Dene

What does Methode Cap Classique – South African Sparkling Wine taste like?

Graham Beck – NV Brut: “Creamy green fruits and yellow floral on the nose. Fresh and fruity style. Good balance between acidity and sweetness in the palate – floral, apricot, peach skin, touch of herbaceous and a soft citrus close.”

Babylonstoren – Sprankel 2013: “Crisp red apples and pastry on the nose. A dry flavour of yeasty, minerals, bruised green apples.”

Paul Rene – Brut: “Zesty cirtus and apple aromas with added white floral and brioche notes. Flavours are young and vibrant with a fresh fruity taste sensation showing yellow stone fruits, lemon zest, flaky pastry, toast, freshly cut grass, white floral. Quite a bit packed into a single glass of bubbly!”
