Varietal: Champagne Blend
There are few wine regions of the world with as much influence or fame as that of Champagne in France. The sparkling wines from this special area have long been associated with excellence and magnificent flavors, and much of their success has been down to the careful blending of fine grape varietals in order to achieve spectacular results. Most commonly, Champagne wines use both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varietal grapes in more or less equal measures, often boosted by a small quantity of Pinot Meunier for extra bite. The Chardonnay varietal grapes offer their acidity and flavor to the bottle, and help with the dryness associated with quality in this type of wine. The Pinot Noir, on the other hand, gives strength to the wine, and gives Champagne its distinctive 'length' of character.
Region: Lombardy
Lombardy is a stunning region of north west Italy, and is home to many of the country's finest white wines. In particular, the wines made from grapes grown on the shores of the expansive and unspoilt Lake Garda have come to be regarded as the finest of the region, and the Trebbiano di Laguna grapes grown there are capable of expressing their wondrous terroir, alongside their crisp and fresh fruit flavors and aromas. In recent decades, wineries in Lombardy have been keen to expand their portfolio, and plenty of French Bordeaux vines were planted, bearing varietals including Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes. As such, Lombardy today produces a wide range of excellent wines, packed full of fascinating characteristics and classic flavors which are popular around the world.
Country: Italy
There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
