This video is really helpful, Emerald. I usually get overwhelmed and worried about popping the cork, but I feel a lot more confident now. Great work!

@LMJ914 4 жыл бұрын

Very informative especially not popping the cork. I always enjoyed hearing the pop. The twisting back and forth of the bottle is the secret. Excellent presentation, love the Grand National poke.

The way I was taught, when it came to pouring, was to hold the glass itself and tilt it toward the champagne bottle so it ran down the inside surface of the glass which reduces the agitation that causes the foaming, making a faster, cleaner, and more consistent pour. Also, very interesting demonstration on the polish of the glass, those impurities and residues create nucleation points for the carbonation to expand more readily.

That's how a barman will often do it for speed. However, a sommelier will never hold the glass, not ever.

Whoever taught this joker to pour champagne wants career advice. This is the WORST way to pour champagne. Why? simple. The product is effervescent - bubbly. That is its whole ethos, that's why it is made like that. To pour vertically into ANY glass will naturally "wash" those bubbles out of the product. In effect "flattening" it. Next time you buy a can of Coke/Pepsi/Dr Peppers see what happens if to pour it directly into a glass and see how quick the product goes flat. To pour properly, tilt the glass over and pour the champagne down the side of the glass therefore minimising the loss of bubbles. In the champagne world a champagne is judged by many things but the major thing is the size and amount of bubbles. You will know if you buy a $40 bottle and a $2000 bottle.

I think you do. I don't need to. I was taught the finer points of Champagne in Reims, France. Do you even know where that is?

@treez439 6 ай бұрын

You think I do what? You don't need to to what? Your reply makes no sense. Everybody knows where Reims is, and everybody knows where Champagne is made. Visiting there as a tourist (I'm guessing American) and paying for guided tour of Vranken-Pommery or Taittinger or Ruinart doesn't make you sophisticated and worldly. Every tour bus stops there. You learned the finer points of nothing. Stick to your Coke and Dr Pepper.

@@treez439I am not surprised it doesn't make sense. The way you pour champagne shows me that. Would it make any difference where i come from or whether i am trained in wine perchance? You claim you are trained in wine. Were you off sick when the course did champagne?
