Discover the grape variety: Courbu noir
Courbu noir is a grape variety with red and bronze leaves. It originates from the Pyrenean vineyards where it occupies a little more than one hectare. It is completely different from the white Courbu. The adult leaves have five lobes and a petiolar sinus. The berries of the Courbu Noir are round. The berries are small, as are the clusters. The beginning of the veins and the petiolar point are red. The shoots of this grape variety bend to form a parasol. To hope for a significant harvest, it is important to prune it long. Its budburst period begins 3 days after Chasselas. As for its maturity, it is the third period. This variety is very sensitive to oidium, but it does not fear mildew very much. It produces light and fine wines. It is not very colourful and does not contain enough alcohol. Courbu Noir has two approved clones, 728 and 729.

The wine region of Trentino-Alto-Adige
Trentino-Alto Adige is Italy's northernmost wine region, located right on the border with Austria. Production was once dominated by the local red varieties Lagrein and Schiava. Now white wines are becoming more important in terms of Volume. Increasingly, they are made from internationally renowned Grape varieties such as Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay.
The word of the wine: Disgorging (champagne)
This is the evacuation of the deposit formed by the yeasts during the second fermentation in the bottle, by opening the bottle. The missing volume is completed with the liqueur de dosage - a mixture of wine and cane sugar - before the final cork is placed. For some years now, some producers have been replacing this sugar with rectified concentrated musts (concentrated grape juice) which give excellent results. A too recent dosage (less than three months) harms the gustatory harmony of the champagne.
