Why are major Champagne houses, like Taittinger and Pommery, spending millions of dollars to buy and plant vineyards in England? How did Brexit reshape the English wine industry, from barrels to picking grapes? Why does visiting the English wine country feel like uncovering a hidden secret? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Henry Jeffreys, author of Vines in a Cold Climate. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, Vines in a Cold Climate. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights Is England's greatest wine yet to be discovered? What makes Peter Hall of Breaky Bottom such a memorable and inspirational person? What is it like to visit English wine regions as a tourist? How can you make the most out of a trip to London as a wine lover? What was the most surprising historical tidbit about English wine that Henry uncovered while researching? Which significant milestones have signalled the improved quality of English wine in the past 20 years? What makes English winemakers different from those from other regions? If English wine is such a precarious venture, why have champagne houses like Tattinger and Pommery chosen to plant in England? How did Brexit impact English winemakers? What's the biggest risk to the English wine industry? Key Takeaways Henry observes that Champagne is warming up and the concern is that eventually the grapes might not have enough acidity, so they're hedging their bets. He also thinks they are entrepreneurial. If you could bring your expertise and get it to work and make a great, great wine - which is what they're interested in - then, why not? Brexit had a big impact on the English wine industry. There was a hell of a lot of upheaval, but I think generally the industry has adjusted and worked out how they can bring things in. The cost, obviously, has gone into the wines, and we probably have to pay more. But I think all the problems have already been dealt with. It's all kind of factored in. Southern England, especially in the spring and summer, Henry says, is breathtakingly beautiful in a way that no other country is. There are beautiful little villages and hills and churches. It can be quite incongruous sometimes seeing the vines, especially if on a cold day when you'd expect to see horses and apple trees. Wine tourism is quite in its infancy at the moment, but it's coming on strongly. A lot of wineries have realized that you can sell tourists wine without anyone taking a cut. So they're beginning to take it a lot more seriously… have restaurants on site, really good tour guides. The potential is massive because most of the vineyards are within an hour and a half of London. About Henry Jeffreys Henry Jeffreys worked in the wine trade and publishing before becoming a writer. He's a contributor to Good Food, The Guardian, Harpers Wine & Spirit, and The Spectator, wine columnist for The Critic magazine, and has appeared on radio, TV, and The Rest is History podcast.

Bluetongue disease continues to affect livestock across England, and into Wales. The virus, which can be fatal to sheep, is transmitted by biting midges, which breed in warm temperatures. Over the last few weeks, DEFRA has increased the areas where animal movements are restricted. We speak to a breeder in Suffolk whose pedigree flock is under lockdown because of the restrictions. He's been unable to sell his rams at market and has criticised the government for not tackling the disease sooner. He feels he should be compensated. Defra says it's taking prompt action to mitigate the spread of the disease.All week we're discussing wine, and in England, sparkling white wine has been going from strength to strength. That's attracted interest and investment from one of the world's best known Champagne houses. Taittinger has opened a vineyard near Canterbury in Kent and will soon be bottling its first wine from there. Listeners have told us they can't get hold of semi skimmed organic milk in the supermarket. We speak to a dairy consultant to find out why. Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Un nouveau monde, de nouveaux métiers, de nouvelles règles, et plus de création, d'imagination et d'émotion ! Avec Detroit, une boîte française
Sofisticata, autorevole, classica: sono questi i tre aggettivi che meglio descrivono l'essenza della Maison de Champagne Taittinger e che sono espressi nella nuova etichetta. Un restyling studiato con l'obiettivo di comunicare in maniera ancora più diretta ed efficace l'anima di questa preziosa produzione, attraverso scelte formali in grado di valorizzarne l'impareggiabile eleganza e rendere il giusto omaggio a una lunga storia che affonda le sue radici in un passato leggendario.
Le monde de la cuisine est un univers de compétition. Même les chefs qui ne veulent pas se mesurer aux autres, ne courent pas après les médailles, les trophées ou les étoiles, sont au quotidien dans l'obligation de se dépasser. Mais certains, en plus de leur combat quotidien en cuisine, cherchent une dose d'adrénaline supplémentaire. Un concours, c'est d'abord une préparation, puis une ou des épreuves de tension extrême et enfin un résultat, une sanction. La gloire en un instant ... ou la déception. Mais si je voulais qu'on parle de ces concours c'est pour connaître la raison profonde qui pousse un.e chef.fe à s'y coller !? Les concours, c'est une implication considérable, souvent en parallèle des services quotidiens alors pourquoi vouloir rajouter de la pression, à la pression? Qu'est-ce que les concours apportent aux cuisiniers? Est-ce que la compétition les aide ensuite dans la pratique de leur métier? C'est à Tom Meyer qu'on a posé ces questions car malgré sa petite trentaine, le chef de Granite a un palmarès qui pourrait faire pâlir les plus grands. 1 étoile Michelin obtenu en six mois, Meilleur Ouvrier de France, Vainqueur du prix Culinaire international Taittinger, Finaliste du Bocuse d'or France, (...) Bref, vous allez l'entendre, depuis le début Tom Meyer a toujours voulu passer des concours. Parce que c'est une suite logique à sa pratiques sportive, mais plus étonnant aussi, vous allez découvrir que la participation à toutes ces épreuves lui a permis d'évoluer dans sa pratique quotidienne, dans son attitude au sein de sa brigade et dans les valeurs qu'il souhaite transmettre à son équipe et à ses clients. Voilà un épisode riche en enseignement et un chef d'une grande maturité, surprenant dans sa manière d'aborder son métier : On voit rarement par exemple des chefs déjeuner dans leur propre restaurant, au milieu des clients ... Alors bonne écoute et si vous voulez rencontrer le chef sur son terrain, ça se passe ici : Restaurant Granite 6 rue Bailleul, Paris 1er 01 40 13 64 06 reservation@granite.paris

Molta attesa ha accompagnato l'uscita in Italia del Comtes de Champagne Grands Crus Rosè, millesimato che incarna perfettamente il connubio fra i Grands Crus di Pinot Noir e di Chardonnay: cuvée dallo stile deciso ed equilibrato, si inserisce nella grande tradizione della Maison esprimendone il savoir-faire elegante e puro.Il Comtes de Champagne Rosé è composto per il 40% da Grands Crus di Chardonnay provenienti dai terroir più prestigiosi della Côte des Blancs, e per il 60% da Pinot Noir dei Grands Crus della Montagna di Reims. Per il millesimo 2011 durante l'assemblaggio è stato aggiunto un 14% di Pinot de Bouzy vinificato in rosso, la cui macerazione pre-fermentativa, piuttosto lunga, ha apportato un'importante struttura tannica, con aromi di frutti rossi e neri. Il 2011 è stata un'annata molto particolare, caratterizzata da una siccità primaverile che ha costretto le radici della vite ad esplorare in profondità il terreno. Un'estate fresca e umida ha, invece, poi favorito la maturazione delle uve e preparato al meglio la vendemmia di agosto. Il Comtes de Champagne Grands Crus Rosè 2011 si contraddistingue per la brillantezza e l'eleganza della sua tinta rosata, qualche leggero riflesso rosso acceso mette in evidenza l'estrema finezza e la delicatezza della sua effervescenza.
Founded by the noble family behind Champagne Taittinger, Claude Taittinger's search for a worthy U.S. counterpart began in the late 1970s. In 1987 he selected a 138-acre parcel in the heart of Carneros, Napa Valley. Wisely selecting Eileen Crane to oversee the development of the winery and vineyards, the team created the quintessential California expression of the Taittinger style in Carneros.The heart of Domaine Carneros has always been sparkling wines, with distinctive styles ranging from the classic vintage-dated Brut cuvée to our luxury Le Rêve Blanc de Blancs. In 1992 we added rich, complex Pinot Noir to our portfolio and our passion for sparkling and still wines continues to grow. Learn about sparkling winemaking and Eileen Crane, Pinot Noir winemaking and TJ Evans, and our portfolio of wines.All of our wines proudly hail from the Carneros appellation, and 95% of our fruit comes from our estate vineyards. More on our vineyards.As anyone who has driven between Napa and Sonoma can tell you, the Domaine Carneros château is a stunning regional landmark.

Kent Tisher has been a follower of the LFF podcast for some time but I only met him after he recently won the Loulabelle's giveaway and was communicating with me regarding the arrangements for the sending of a magnum of Taittinger champagne to him in Canada. I then uncovered his French story and felt I wanted to share it with FrancoFilers everywhere!Kent is the son of international teachers and grew up in French West Africa. Whilst he and I both agree there is a bigger conversation to be had about colonialism, it was interesting to hear of the way he grew up with French influences that have left a lasting impact. Kent also went to medical school in the French Caribbean on the island of St Martin, so his experiences of French culture internationally are quite varied.Now living in Canada, Kent works as a palliative care doctor. I can imagine this work would be extraordinarily taxing, as well as rewarding. Kent says one by-product of the work he does is to focus on living his best life. He does this in some ways by connecting his creative side and freeing his mind by engaging in a couple of his other passions, opera singing and piano playing/composition. But he has also travelled extensively and chatted to me about some amazing experiences he has had in France.Together with his sister and also sometimes with his cousins Kent has done a couple of roadtrips. One particular trip he described to me was a vacation where they all hiked from Dijon through Burgundy. The best part of this trip was that the tour organisers took their luggage from village to village each day so Kent and his family could hike unencumbered through the grape vines. (I imagine it was more like a lovely meandering!) As he chatted I could actually imagine being there for these experiences. He also explained how drinking champagne in Champagne was a revelation for him! Kent told mer that lots of champagne making happens in local garages and the terroir is so prevalent when tasting the various wines... much more than the large blended champagne houses. I now can't wait to get there!Sometimes people cross our paths for a reason. I feel so fortunate to have crossed paths now with Kent. I now have a new determination to live my best life as he said, whilst staying my own motto to 'be kind".**Louise Prichard is the host of the Loulabelle's FrancoFiles podcast.**Other Loulabelle's links:FrancoFile Fix on YouTubeLoulabelle's FrancoFiles Spotify Playlist Loulabelle's FrancoFiles InstagramLoulabelle's FrancoFiles website

さおりさんってどうしてこんなに自分の魂に正直で いられるんだろう。どうしてその声をもとに忠実に 行動に移せるんだろう!と、いうのが さおりさんとお話した後に感じたことです。 さおりさんのように魂の声に従って行動すると、そのエネルギーに乗っかって いろんな人が集まってきて、そこから国境も人種、言葉も ジェンダーも関係なく、人との繋がりが広がっていく。 そして、目に見えない力が後押ししてくれる。 あるきっかけで、自分の魂がいつもずっと側で見守ってくれていて、 さおりさんは一生孤独ではないんだと気づく。 これに気づいてからは、心身ともに悦びを表現することに 焦点を置くようになった。そして、それを表現することによって 他人からの評価や承認を超えた世界を見つけたとさおりさんは おっしゃいます。 もちろん、彼女のストーリー自体も十分美しいのですが、 彼女の言葉と声のエネルギーも本当に清らかで美しいのです。 キラキラという言葉を超越しています。 魂とともに軽やかに表現を続けるさおりさんとの1時間を ぜひお楽しみください。 ー神田さおりさんのBIOGRAPHYー 山口県産まれ / イラク&ドバイ育ち 日本への強い憧憬と共に 世界各地の様々な暮らしに根付いた美意識に触れる。 "魂の悦びの解放"をThemaに 生き様そのものを表現とするアーティスト。 2020年より "女神解放" "エロス解放"をテーマとした作品シリーズをスタート。SelfLove activistとして活動開始。 死生感に於ける命の源としての"性"に向き合い、自らを愛し直すことの重要性を作品に込めて写真、舞踊、絵画、音楽、映像、詩作など多岐にわたる手法で表現活動を行う。 また、肉体そのものを表現メディアとする” 踊絵師 “として世界各国のセレモニーやフェスティバルに出演し、その土地と出逢った方々のエネルギーを受け取り、儀式芸術として祷をこめてキャンバスに現し続ける。 音•舞•衣•香•食など様々な表現を巻き込み、五感を満たす独自のセレモニーアートパフォーマンスは舞台芸術として評価され、世界遺産/沖縄中城跡、奈良/天河大弁財天社、岡山/吉備津彦神社にて御奉納を務める他、台湾・上海・香港・アメリカ・フランス・スイス・カザフスタン・インドなど世界各地に招聘される。 Canon,NISSAN,AlfaRomeo,TAITTINGER,VIVIENNETAM,COMTESSEなど様々な企業とのコラボレーションも行い、CM出演他、ブランドプロデュースも多数手がける。
You will learn the passion and commitment it takes to grow and make Champagne. The world has an expectation of the best wines that come from the famed district. Clovis Taittinger from Champagne Taittinger recently visited Los Angeles and I had the chance to reconnect with him in Hollywood. After a few minutes, I remembered how he is a very philosophical man whose point of view is rooted in history and sentiment. The winery is owned by his father and ran by the sister and brother team of Vitalie and Clovis, Taittinger continues to bestow the romance that Champagne brings to any table. Have a listen, you will find him quite charming.

Talents, le podcast de L'Hôtellerie Restauration, vous invite dans l'une des plus prestigieuses maisons de Champage : Taittinger.

Im Stuttgarter Auktionshaus Eppli kommt am Samstag, den 19.03.2022 die erste Hälfte einer beeindruckenden Weinsammlung unter den Hammer. Die sensationelle Sammlung eines süddeutschen Gastronomenpaars beinhaltet jede Menge Raritäten und Jahrhundertweine. Der vinophile Schwerpunkt liegt auf französischen Tropfen aus Bordeaux, Burgund und der Champagne. Darunter verbergen sich Hochkaräter wie ein 1945er Mouton Rothschild oder auch lang gereifte Champagner aus den Häusern Krug, Taittinger oder Dom Pérignon. Für die Sonderauktion der Eppli Auktionshalle in Leinfelden-Echterdingen hat das Traditionshaus extra einen geeigneten und alarmgesicherten Weinkeller errichtet, um die rund 3.000 Flaschen optimal bis zur Versteigerung lagern zu können. Die Flaschen wurden seit den 1980er- Jahren von den Besitzern ausgesucht und bei vertrauenswürdigen Händlern erworben. Neben Schaumweinen, Rot- und Weißweinen, gibt es außerdem rund 50 Flaschen des begehrten Romano Levi Grappas.
In this episode we learn about the Champagne region and the Taittinger Winery. One of the most historical and still family owned wineries left in Champagne. Dominated by Chardonnay and own the majority of their vineyards. Taittinger is the benchmark for ultimate Champagne quality.
Vitalie was born in Reims, she's the great-granddaughter of Champagne Taittinger's founder Pierre Taittinger and now she is the President of the champagne house. Two years ago, she took over from her father, Pierre-Emmanuel. When I first met the young woman a few years ago, I asked myself if it's a gift or a burden to be born into one of the world's most famous champagne families, if it's freedom or pressure. Clovis is Vitalie's brother, he's the company's Managing Director. When it came to the decision who of the two children would follow into their father's footsteps, the father specifically didn't want to be part of the final decision making process. Instead, for a whole year, the entire team, including the two siblings, pondered on what would be best for the company. For them it was neither about ego nor about clever career moves. It was simply about finding a solution that would be best for Champagne Taittinger; that would be best to keep a tradition alive and thriving. This story says so much about a family and about a region and its mystified product. It says so much about what champagne is about. The Champagne region is a tiny cosmos built on history, values, tradition, and trust. It goes beyond family although the families that founded the big houses and cultivated champagne over hundreds of years are at the core of this cosmos. It's important to understand that all the champagne houses on their own can't cover the demand of grapes for their production just by using the produce from their own vineyards. It's just not enough. They depend on a large network of small independent growers in the region. There are contracts yet if the growers don't want to cooperate with a champagne house, the champagne house won't survive. They both depend on each other, which is fruitful and only works when their cooperation is built on trust, respect, and the same values. Land is precious and limited - and a UNESCO world heritage since 2015. It's one of the most expensive in the wine world. € 1 million per acre, only topped by Bordeaux's and Burgundy's top appellations. When Taittinger was sold by the extended family in 2005 - a step Vitalie's father didn't agree with - it only took him a year to have the support from a local bank and the backup from the growers to buy the company back and be assured that he would manage to keep producing outstanding champagne. So when Vitalie joined the company in 2007 quite spontaneously, after studying art and establishing a life independent of Taittinger, she was aware of the responsibility given into her hands but also about the chance she got to keep the story of her family's champagne alive so that one day she could pass it on to the next generation. For this podcast episode, Vitalie shared a recipe with me that's both cozy and sumptuous. Squash Soup with Chestnut Purée and Scallop Carpaccio with Spinach Pesto and Caviar - easy to prepare in advance and perfect for a New Year's Eve dinner!

Welcome to the special Christmas episode of The Edition! In this episode, we look at five major topics that dominated the news this year and the pages of The Spectator. First up a review of the year in politics with our resident Coffee House Shot's team James Forsyth, Katy Balls and Isabel Hardman. We discuss how Boris seemed to make such a strong start to the year through the vaccine rollout, but squandered this goodwill with several own goals. We also touch on some of the big political moments of the year: Partygate, the Owen Paterson affair and of course Matt Hancock. (00:39) Next, we go global and look at three of the major powerhouses that took headlines this year. The EU, who ends the year in a panic over Russia, extreme Covid measures, and upcoming elections. The US started with an insurrection and ended with President Biden's plummeting poll numbers. Finally, China, who if you ask them say they are doing just fine. Lara Prendergast is joined by Jonathan Miller, Douglas Murray, and Cindy Yu to discuss the state of the world. (22:34) Then, a subject we all hoped to be leaving in the rearview mirror. Covid. With so much misinformation out there, the one important thing to have is good data, which is why we built The Spectator's Covid data hub, and William Moore is joined on the podcast by three people who spend an ungodly amount of time going through those figures. The Spectator editor Fraser Nelson, Michael Simmons (who puts the data hub together and is making his podcast debut), and our economics editor Kate Andrews. (40:52) We chose our penultimate segment by looking back at all the most read articles of the year and chose the subject that appeared the most. The Royal Family won by a landslide, and it has been a big year for them. To break down the year's big Royal moments and try and figure out why we are so obsessed with this family, Lara Prendergast and William Moore sat down with Freddy Gray and Patrick Jephson. (59:37) And finally, The Edition's producer has given William Moore an early Christmas present. The Church of England is one of his favourite things to talk about, because of how important he thinks it is for our society, but also because of the many issues he has with how it is run. Will gets stuck into it with four amazing priests – Marcus Walker, Daniel French, Nicholas Cranfield, and Steve Morris – who see out the year by telling us their favourite Christmas carols.

Remi Cohen and Tom Simoneau. Remi Cohen, CEO of Domaine Carneros, is our guest on California Wine Country with Steve Jaxon and Dan Berger. Tom Simoneau is also in the studio today and the subject is the sparkling wines of Domaine Carneros. But first, Dan Berger has opened a 12-year-old 2009 Pinot Noir from his extensive personal cellar. Morelli Vineyards provided the grapes for this wine made by a winery called Lost Canyon. Dan looked for them online but didn't find much, they may not still be active. Tom Simoneau has not heard of them. Dan Berger notes that Dan Goldfield has also used Morelli Vineyards for his prestigious Dutton-Goldfield label. Now they begin tasting the Domaine Carneros sparkling wines beginning with the Brut, which is the first wine they ever made in 1987 when they launched. Domaine Carneros is owned by the Taittinger family, who are famous French Champagne producers. They wanted to have a sparkling wine company in California so they started one in the 1980s. When Claude Taittinger came to visit Napa Valley and Carneros in particular, he expressed that desire. Then they hired Eileen Crane to create the winery and make the wine. Eileen retired last year but still comes in to help with the blending. Eileen Crane was on California Wine Country on this episode from March 29, 2017 and she told the whole story of her very interesting career. Remi Cohen has brought these bottles today for tasting and discussion: Domaine Carneros by Taittinger 2017 Brut Domaine Carneros Cuvée de la Pompadour sparkling Brut Rosé Le Rêve Domaine Carneros by Taittinger 2014 Domaine Carneros Estate Pinot Noir 2018 Carneros means Rams in Spanish. They open the Sparkling Rosé but it turns out to be slightly corked. This happens to about 1% of wines, a mould grows on the cork and can spoil the taste of the wine. (Dan thinks most corked wines in the US are probably not identified as such, people have to be used to telling the flavor of it. People who don't know, may conclude the don't like the wine but don't know why.) Next they taste Le Rêve, which means The Dream. This is aged 6 years before they release it, this is a 2014 they are tasting. The story behind this wine is that Claude Taittinger asked Eileen Crane to make a top quality sparkling wine only from estate-grown Chardonnay grapes. The owner was so impressed he had a special bottle made for Le Rêve, emblazoned with two rams' heads. The word Carneros means Rams, in Spanish. first release was 1992. This is as dry as the other, but is different from the Brut. Dan points out that you're getting your richness from the Pinot Noir that has intentionally made for the color. They do Le Rêve and Lobster dinners at the winery. Dan Berger would serve grilled scallops with this. Click the logo to visit our sponsor Bottle Barn online. Bottle Barn is still featuring Harvest Festival winners, including all four of Tom Simoneau's gold medal winners. They are also selling a lot of sparkling wines right now. They also have acquired some important collections and there are some unique bottles in those lots. Dan points out that the blend process is meticulous and very important. Remi is glad that Eileen Crane still comes for blending. Only a small amount of it has been given ML. It is how they choose the best Chardonnay to turn into sparkling wine with the tirage which is putting sugar and yeast in and let it ferment in the bottle. Dan points out how making sparkling wine is “a game of patience” as Remi describes it, since it takes years to plant the right vineyard, and the sparkling winemaking process takes so long. They harvest at 18 to 20 Brix, which is really tart. At the Domaine Carneros chateau, there are lots of options for visits, with food pairings of all kinds. Finally, they taste a Pinot Noir, made by T.J. Evans, who specializes in Pinot Noir for DC. The Estate Pinot Noir is from 6 different estates that they farm in Carneros.

Tanisha and I were able to view the upcoming documentary,SPARKLING: THE STORY OF CHAMPAGNE.Directed by Frank Mannion and featuring Vitalie Taittinger, Bruno Paillard, Stephen Fry, and Sir Nicholas Soames,SPARKLING: THE STORY OF CHAMPAGNEwill be available in select theaters and on demand on August 13th.The film is a love letter to the joys and pleasures of champagne. Major champagne houses featured include Pol Roger (Winston Churchill famously drank over 40,000 bottles in his lifetime), Bollinger (appearing in 15 James Bond movies), as well as Piper-Heidsieck (Marilyn Monroe's favourite), Taittinger, JAY-Zs Armand de Brignac, Cristal, Veuve Clicquot and Queen Elizabeth II's vineyard at Windsor. It explores the legend of the French monk, Dom Perignon, who famously declared "I can taste the stars" when he discovered champagne, and examines the theory that the English actually invented champagne decades before Dom Perignon. It also looks at the impact of climate change. The champagne region is gradually becoming too hot leading to the likes of Pommery and Taittinger acquiring vineyards in southern England where the chalk soil is the same as the champagne region. The film was shot on location in France, England, New York and LA.Follow The Swirl Suite:@SwirlSuitewww.swirlsuite.comSarita @VineMeUpTanisha @GirlMeetsGlassLeslie @Vino301Glynis @Vino_NoireSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/SwirlSuite.

Livsglädje och allehanda levnadsvisdom bjuder Edward Blom och Mats Ryd på i detta avsnitt, som att man själv bör brygga sitt öl och baka sitt bröd.För första gången på femton månader träffas de tu på riktigt och inte bara via tråd, närmare bestämt i Edwards trädgård! Tilldragelsen firas med fyra sorters champagne av finare slag, och denna gång blir det vinnjutning snarare än vinprovning.Att champagne och sill kan kombineras slås än en gång fast, liksom att höjden av dumhet är vaskning. Apropå en lyssnarfråga går Mats och Edward igenom en rad trevliga sätt på vilka man kan bränna sin lön, på lokal och annorstädes. Mats lär oss vilken roll förkortningen ”FKB” spelar i sammanhanget samt konstaterar att alla människor, likt Edward, borde ha en musselfiskare i bekantskapskretsen.Vi får också veta varför det är viktigt – kanske rentav en skyldighet – att köpa lyxprodukter, vad som är speciellt med den norska matjessillen och lite om Winston Churchills mysdräktsuniform. Edward berättar om sina upplevelser från olika vinbutiker i Harlem, varför det kan vara klokt att skaffa barn sent i livet – och att det i år är Ignatiusåret, vilket faktiskt gör att alla poddlyssnare bör tillbringa årets svemester med en jalapeñofrukt i fickan!

On March 11 James had an incredible Tasting Interview with Vitalie Taittinger, one of the owners of Champagne Taittinger and the producer of the incredible Taittinger Champagne Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2008. James was wowed by the wine, saying it is the best blanc de blanc he has had in a long time - maybe ever.“It's the expression of chardonnay that is super pure,” agreed Taittinger. “In the beginning you feel the youth of the wine. And you are on the energy of the chardonnay. And you have something that is pure and precise. Then you feel it is a large wine but then very straight … then you wait for the second life of the wine in your glass. And the complexity and the years that are precious to the wine start appearing.”They also tasted the Taittinger Champagne Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2011, which will be released in September, and it was a more linear and mineral young Champagne than the 2008 and had outstanding drive, as well as various other wines.Take a look at the full conversation above and view the tasting notes by clicking the wines below.

Ah, le champagne : qu'on l'aime ou non, il fait partie de nos sociétés... et de nos vies ! Œuvrer chaque jour pour faire perdurer la passion familiale autour du champagne ? C'est la mission de Vitalie Taittinger et celle qu’elle vit chaque jour à travers son métier passion en tant que Présidente de la maison ! Passionnée par l'art, Vitalie se tourne d’abord vers des études dans ce domaine et alors, rien ne présageait réellement qu'elle rejoindrait un jour la maison familiale... Et puis, des circonstances de la vie et un événement marquant de l’entreprise plus tard, elle rejoint l'aventure : d'abord en tant que free-lance en marketing, jusqu'à succéder à son père en tant que présidente des années plus tard. Et elle en est fière ! Avec Vitalie, nous avons parlé parcours, passion pour l'art, mais aussi cycle de la vie et inspirations. Sans oublier ses combats de femme, comme celui d’aller constamment au-devant de ses peurs. Et dans une société tournée vers des réseau sociaux qui prônent la parole permanente, l’importance de choisir aussi de parfois ne pas s'exprimer.

In samenwerking met Wines of South Africa (@WOSA_NL) mochten we even inbellen met de Bubbelbaas van Zuid-Afrika namelijk Pieter Ferreira! Pieter is al 30 jaar de wijnmaker van Graham Beck en heeft onder andere stages gelopen bij Krug, Moët en nog een aantal tophuizen in de Champagne. Zijn wijn van de week was de Comtes de Champagne 2006 van Taittinger. Lekker, hoor. Graham Beck is de specialist op het gebied van bubbels in Zuid-Afrika die ze daar heel toepasselijk MCC oftewel Methode Cap Classique noemen. We hebben het over Sun = Robertson het gebied waar de wijngaarden liggen. Maar ook over de 140 hectare wijngaarden (giga-veel). Verder krijgen we nog tips voor mousserende wijnen uit de UK want ook daar heeft Graham Beck wijngaarden. Dikke tip is Gaspond, volgens Pieter. Heb jij nou dorst gekregen van deze podcast? Koop dan vooral een fles MCC en support your South African winemaker! Graham Beck is in Nederland verkrijgbaar bij: Wijnhandel Peeters in Rotterdam Wow Wine in Utrecht

In 1955 Ian Fleming's third James Bond novel Moonraker was published. Tyler and Don embark on a thorough analysis of the book. In a series of three podcasts they go through the adventure chapter by chapter, providing as much background information as they could gather. This is Part 1 and covers chapters 1 - 7 of the book. It's Monday, and Mondays are hell. Bond is reading through boring paperwork when he's summoned by M. for a personal matter. There's this chap at his club Blades who cheats at cards. The problem is, the chap is the famous philanthropist Sir Hugo Drax, creator of the wonderful Moonraker rocket. Could Bond please confront Drax during a game of bridge and make him stop cheating?

Enfant, Philippe Renard, flâne dans la cuisine de sa grand-mère, qui lui réserve le droit de goûter tous ses plats. Il aime les mets riches en saveurs que cette Bretonne concocte pour ses proches. C’est un enfant curieux et gourmand, qui apprécie les moments conviviaux quotidiens en famille autour d’une grande table. Il grandit en découvrant la signification des mots générosité et convivialité. Sensible à ce milieu qu’il aime, il décide très tôt d’en faire son métier. À 15 ans, il entre en cuisine comme apprenti puis fait ses débuts en tant que commis au Café de la Paix du Grand Hôtel avec le Chef Georges Dury, où il apprend le management et la qualité. Il fait ensuite de belles rencontres culinaires, en travaillant chez les meilleurs : Lameloise, Troisgros et Loiseau. Après ses riches expériences, il est recruté par Roland Durand pour intégrer la brigade de cuisine de l’Hôtel Sofitel Paris. Ce poste lui permettant de voyager dans le monde entier pour des promotions culinaires, il découvre alors d’autres cultures mais surtout d’autres goûts ! Il sera très vite promu et deviendra Executive Chef du Sofitel Bourbon Paris puis directeur de la restauration de l’hôtel Scribe Paris. En 1991, un nouveau défi professionnel s’ouvre à lui, il est sollicité par la famille Taittinger pour restructurer les cuisines de l’hôtel Lutetia, l’un des lieux mythiques parisiens. Il accepte et devient Chef de ce 4 étoiles de luxe où il reste 23 ans. En 2013, à la fermeture du Lutetia pour travaux, Philippe Renard a envie de nouveaux projets. Il écrit un livre sur ses merveilleuses années passées en tant que Chef étoilé (à retrouver au sein du café littéraire dans le restaurant) qui sort en novembre 2014, puis participe au concours pour la reprise du restaurant situé dans le Jardin du Luxembourg. Il remporte ce dernier sans difficulté et ouvre en 2016 la Table du Luxembourg ! Emportant avec lui ses plus grands succès de la Brasserie du Lutetia et ses produits favoris, provenant de ses plus fidèles fournisseurs, il s’épanouit aujourd’hui en développant une cuisine traditionnelle, authentique, gourmande, simple et généreuse, issue des saisons et du terroir français, avec une touche d’originalité. Plus qu’un simple Chef, Philippe Renard est un artiste !

Founded by the noble family behind Champagne Taittinger, Claude Taittinger's search for a worthy U.S. counterpart began in the late 1970s. In 1987 he selected a 138-acre parcel in the heart of Carneros, Napa Valley. Wisely selecting Eileen Crane to oversee the development of the winery and vineyards, the team created the quintessential California expression of the Taittinger style in Carneros.The heart of Domaine Carneros has always been sparkling wines, with distinctive styles ranging from the classic vintage-dated Brut cuvée to our luxury Le Rêve Blanc de Blancs. In 1992 we added rich, complex Pinot Noir to our portfolio and our passion for sparkling and still wines continues to grow. Learn about sparkling winemaking and Eileen Crane, Pinot Noir winemaking and TJ Evans, and our portfolio of wines.All of our wines proudly hail from the Carneros appellation, and 95% of our fruit comes from our estate vineyards. More on our vineyards.As anyone who has driven between Napa and Sonoma can tell you, the Domaine Carneros château is a stunning regional landmark.

Pierre-Emmanuel Taittinger est également chairman du Domaine Carneros en Californie, domaine créé en 1988 avec les partenaires historiques des Taittinger aux Etats-Unis, la famille Kopf.
At Christmas-time and New Year we drink more of it than ever and it seems perfectly acceptable to be cracking open bottles of bubbly before noon or anytime you have guests round. It’s also the perfect gift to bring round, a ribbon tied round the iconic bottle. Bubbly is a great aperitif, can finish off a meal, be paired with liqueurs or drank on its own. Those bubbles can go straight to ones head…and what starts as giddiness…quickly moves into tipsiness…which is sure to end in headache if one too many glasses are enjoyed. We have the Romans to thank for planting vineyards in the Champagne region of France. The roots of champagne being linked to big celebrations were when the first King of France, the warrior, Clovis was baptised and crowned in Reims Cathedral on Christmas day 496 AD and with Reims being in the province of Champagne it flowed freely to celebrate the coronation and from 898 onwards, all French kings were crowned in Reims. With their botanical gardens at hand and the focus and time to dedicate towards their efforts we have monks to thank for many world renowned gastric delights. These include cheeses, confectionaries, cordials and champagnes. For example Dom Perignon, one of the most famous champagne in the world, was started in the 17th century by monks. Marquis de Saint-Évremond brought and elevated champagne to London society whilst he was exiled there in 1661. Bubbles and champagne are synonymous now but it was after became popular in London that the bubbles would eventually become fixed. Up to then, the bubbles had sometimes appeared… and were more likely to appear in bottles that had been shipped to England and had had the fermentation process halted and started with changes in temperature which led to left over sugars which caused carbon dioxide gas to build and would cause the wine to bubble once opened. Once it was established how to ensure the bubbles in each and every bottle champagne really took off in popularity in the 18th c. and with the help and power of French champagne houses still familiar to us today such as Moët & Chandon, Louis Roederer, Piper-Heidsieck and Taittinger they established a product that would symbolise luxury, style and celebration throughout the world with the help of the Parisian artistic, creative and literary elite who were lapping up champagne and depicting it in their works and lifestyles. In the 20th c. the champagne houses took these fashionable associations and created marketing campaigns that revived drinking champagne as a must have for all celebrations, with a focus on Christmas and New Years Eve. Champagne is obviously protected as an item produced only in Champagne but there are other 'bubbly alternatives at generally a lower price point such as Cava from Spain, Prosecco from Italy and sparkling wine from anywhere. Generally champagne is often described as yeasty and sweet with biscuit or brioche notes whole Cava can have earther tones and prosecco has descriptors of sweet and crisp. Prosecco is now taking over the bubbly game with everyone wanting to get in on sharing bottles with each other on nights out, get togethers, parties, pubs and certainly at Christmas and New Years. Prosecco is cheaper than champagne, more fashionable than cava and on the path to continue it’s rise in sales an popularity.

“Remember, gentlemen, it’s not just France we are fighting for, it’s Champagne!” was Winston Churchill’s cri de guerre. Only gentlemen…what about the ladies? Didn’t he know that, throughout history, women were responsible for making some of the great Champagne houses of France famous? Virginie Taittinger, our guest today, is one of those women! Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin gave us Veuve Clicquot, Louise Pommery invented Brut, and Camille Olry-Roederer understood that celebrity and business go hand-in-hand! Now, Virginie Taittinger has joined the sorority. Her bloodline sparkles. It’s no wonder, as her mother is a Piper-Heidsieck and her father ran Taittinger for 45 years. Trained by the best, Virginie is out on her own, following in those celebrated footsteps, doing what she was born to do - bottling bubbly. After six years aging, it’s time to pop the cork of Virginie Taittinger’s first special cuvée, Champagne Virginie T, a combination of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Not only is her champagne delicious, but the packaging is divine. The red-hot box transforms into an ice bucket. Pop the bottle into the bucket with ice and, when the label turns red, it’s ready to drink! We know that Churchill ‘s drink of choice was his Pol Roger. Maybe if Champagne Virginie T, had been around then, he might have switched camps. [content_boxes class="" id="cheat-sheet"] Pop the cork at home with a bottle of your own - Find it in our Liquor Cabinet! [/content_boxes] Pu-pu platters, flaming cocktails and, of course, the original Mai-Tai should evoke just one name: Trader Vic’s, the home of the Tiki Cocktail! Come back next week to find out how one man named Odysseus found his home, not in Greece, but at Trader Vic’s in the London Hilton Park Lane.

One man in London is tasked with keeping famed actress Gertrude Fogg’s legacy aflame. That man, Filippo Previero joins us today directly from Mr. Fogg’s Tavern in olde New Row, Covent Garden, to explain how her gift to the neighborhood has been charming punters for more than a century. (wink, wink) All of Soho mourned when Gertrude Fogg tread the boards for the very last time. Of course, it was in her nature to think of others, even after she had passed. Thanks to her generous nephew, Phileas (Around the World in 80 Days), her dying wish of transforming her humble Covent Garden flat into a tavern downstairs and a gin parlour upstairs was fulfilled. At least, that’s how Filippo Previero tells the tale. On this week’s podcast, we discover how Filippo found the courage to take the leap onto that mongolfiera, heading west from Italy, to become a master of "Mother’s Ruin" (as gin came to be known in the 18th C) here in Londontown. Beginning his career making Negronis, Filippo was perfect for the task. Today, Head Barman Filippo reigns over the extensive Gin Parlour at Mr. Fogg’s Tavern. A few brands may have been around since the days of Hogarth, but, with over 300 different gins, they’re not just home-brewed anymore. Ordering a G&T is an art here. Choosing from so many gins could be a bumpy road, but Filippo and his team are there to ease your own voyage of discovery through some of the best gins worldwide. Watch Filippo Previero of Mr. Fogg's Tavern, London make The Hills Are Alive for us: [embed]https://youtu.be/dd1IfR0fVgI[/embed] Even if you don’t know much about champagne, the name Taittinger conjures up all romantic visions of New Year’s Eve in Paris. Champagne has been in Virginie Taittinger’s family for more than 300 years and now she has a label of her own. Hear her story next week on Best Sips Worldwide.

This week WineGuyMike™ writes all about all things bubbly for your New Year Celebration and understanding the differences between Champagne, Sparkling Wine, Cava, Prosecco, and Spumante. In this post I am also suggesting sparkling wines in a variety of price ranges that offer the consumer value. What is the difference between Champagne and Sparkling wine? Sparkling wines and champagne are still wines that have been infused with carbonation. True Champagne is made in France will be noted by the capital letter “C”on the label. Other sparkling wines called Champagne will by designated as “champagne”, notice no capitalization. Three grapes are used in Champagne, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay. It’s white because only the juice of the grapes is used.The four methods of Sparkling wine production:1. Carbon Dioxide Injection – soft drinks and inexpensive sparkling wines are produced using this method. It produces large bubbles that dissipate quickly.2. Charmat Process – wine undergoes a second fermentation in large bulk tanks and is bottled under pressure. Prosecco and Asti are produced utilizing this method, smaller longer lasting bubbles result from this method. Many Sparkling wines are made using this method.3. Méthode Champenoise – this process takes place in the bottle and requires hands on attention. During the second fermentation the carbon dioxide stays in the bottle and this is where the bubbles come from.4. Transfer Method – the cuvee is bottled for the second fermentation which adds complexity. But the wine is then removed and stored in large tanks after it has spent the appropriate amount of time on yeast.Champagne:The Champagne region of France not only produces some of the finest sparkling wines in the world, but some of the finest wines in the world too. Typically there are three grapes used in the blend for sparkling wines; Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Different vintages are used to create the blend or better known as the “Cuvee”.Champagne is expensive due to the traditional method of how it is made, Methode Champenoise and techniques known as second fermentation. This process takes place in the bottle and requires hands on attention.Pink Champagne or sparkling Rose is strained through the Pinot Noir grape skins, truly a delight. Methode Champenoise is the true French fermentation process. The wine is fermented twice, once in an oak barrel, and the second time the wine developes carbonation in the bottle while aging a minimum of one year.Blanc de Blancs is true French Champagne, it is produced entirely from the Chardonnay grape. Blanc de Blancs fermented using the Methode Champenoise process, producing white Champagne.Designations of quality:Prestige cuveeThis Champagne is the highest priced and is available only in small quantities. It is designated “Prestige” because the grapes come from the best grapes from the highest rated villages, it is made from the first pressing of the grapes, produced only as a vintage, and will have been aged longer than vintage and non-vintage Champagnes.Vintage Champagne Some select years produce an outstanding grape harvest. The Vintage Champagnes are aged for at least three years. Here are an example of a few companies who produce these Vintage Champagnes; Veuve Clicquot, Perrier-Jouet, Moet & Chandon, and Taittinger.Remember a Vintage Champagne will be identified by an actual year marked on the label, but expect to pay a premium for this.Non-Vintage ChampagneThe majority of Sparkling wine on the shelf of a store is non-vintage. These are a blend of wines aged for two years.How to Select your Champagne:■Brut is Dry■Extra Dry is Semidry■Sec is Semisweet■Demi-sec is SweetQuality Champagne Cellars:Ayala, Billecart-Salmon, J. Bollinger, Canard-Duchene, Deutz, Charles Heidsieck, Heid sieck Monopole, Henriot, Krug, Lanson, Lauret Perrier, Mercier, Moet & Chandon, Mumm Perrier-Jouet, Joseph Perrier, Piper Heidsieck, Pol Roger, Pommery, Louis Roederer, Ruinart, Salmon, Taittinger, Veuve ClicquotAll things are not at equal when it comes to sparkling wines and Champagne. So what makes all of these types of sparkling wines different? The answer is how they are made, the type of grapes, and the yeasts that are used in fermentation and left behind in the bottle to age with the sparkling wines.There are 2-3 elements of wine that create aroma and flavor. The first element is the fruit, and the second is the yeast used to ferment the wine. Fruit and yeast combine during fermentation to produce aroma and flavor or sense of taste. The third influence upon the wine in your glass may be from an oak influence during the wines aging process.Other sparkling Wine Regions:Loire Valley of France produces Crémant, while the Asti region of Italy produces Asti Spumanti, and Prosecco comes from the Veneto region. The Catalonia region of Spain produces the world’s most popular sparkling wine, Cava. Quality sparkling wines made in Italy are made by the Metodo Classico process or what the French refer to as Methode Champenoise.Prosecco is an Italian wine, generally a dry sparkling wine, usually made from grape varietyGlera, which is also known as Prosecco. The Veneto region of Italy is where Glera/ Prosecco is grown and produced.Prosecco is mainly produced as a sparkling wine in either the fully sparkling (spumante) or lightly sparkling (frizzante, gentile) styles. Prosecco spumante, which has undergone a full secondary fermentation, is the more expensive style. The various sparkling wines may contain some Pinot Bianco or Pinot Grigio wine. Depending on their sweetness, Proseccos are labeled “brut”, “extra dry”, or “dry”, with the brut being the driest.Unlike Champagne, Prosecco does not ferment in the bottle consequently the wine goes off or gets old quickly and should be drunk as young as possible, preferably within one year.Prosecco is Italy’s answer to refreshing, well-made, sparkling wine that is low in alcohol, about 11 to 12 percent by volume. Created from predominately Prosecco grapes in the northern Veneto region of Italy in the foothills of the Alps. Prosecco is light, affordable, and fun. This Sparkling wine is aromatic and crisp, with nuances of yellow apple, citrus, pear, white peach, and apricot. Today’s Proseccos tend to be dry and very bubbly and typically will present itself as light, fresh, with an initial intense bouquet/aroma, but simple and straight forward compared to Champagne.Prosecco is made using the Charmat method rather than the Champagne method, the French method of making sparkling wine. The Charmat method is a second fermentation in pressurized tanks rather than in individual bottles. The shorter, tank fermentation is preferable for Prosecco because it preserves the freshness and the flavor of the grapes.Asti Spumante is a sweet sparkling wine. It is produced in the province of Asti and made from the Moscato grape. Spumante is a fruit forward sparkling wine that is grapy, and has a low alcohol content usually around 8%. Moscato d’Asti is a sparkling wine that is frizzante in style and for my palette I find these wines to be more refined than the Asti Spumante.Cava originated in the Catalonia region at the in the late 19th century. Originally the wine was known as Champaña until Spanish producers officially adopted the term “Cava” (cellar) in 1970. Cava wines are fermented and aged in the bottle in underground cellars. Today 95% of Spain’s total Cava production is from Catalonia.Cava is produced in different styles ranging from dry to sweet; Brut Nature, Brut (extra dry),Seco (dry), Semiseco (medium) and Dulce (sweet). Under Spanish Denominación de Origen laws, Cava can be produced in six wine regions and must be made according to the Traditional Method with second fermentation in the bottle. The grapes used to produce Cava are Macabeo, Parellada, Xarel·lo, Chardonnay, Pinot noir, and Malvasia. The Chardonnay grape is a late comer to the scene despite being a traditional grape used to produce Champagne. It was not introduced in the production of Cava until the 1980s.In order for the wines to be called ‘Cava’, they must be made in the traditional Méthode Champenoise. Wines made via the low-cost Charmat process may only be called ‘Spanish sparkling wine’. A rosé style of Cava is also produced by adding in small amounts of red wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha or Monastrell to the wine.Cava made by the Champagne method, is a very acceptable alternative to French champagne. Cava is usually made by the Coupage method, whereby must, a.k.a.(grape juice) from different grape varieties is subjected to the first fermentation which is blended until it is consistent with the wine that the winemaker wants to produce . After the Coupage, the wine is put into bottles and yeast and sugar added.
