Many centuries have passed and yet sparkling wine is still believed to the the celebration wine for many people. The name was thought of because of its fizzy look. As you can notice, there are bubbles in the wine and these are caused by carbon dioxided formed through a special which they call secondary fermentation. To be specific, the secondary fermentation procedure occurs inside the bottle or pressurized tank when the wine, yeast and sugar are combined and processed.

There are many different methods of creating a sparkling wine. There is the traditional method called Methode Champenoise, the evolved method called Transfer method, the quick and less expensive method called Charmat Bulk process, and finally the carbonation or injection method.

The Methode Champenoise is the first method used in producing sparkling wine. Secondary fermentation procedure in this method occurs in the bottle when sugar and yeast are added. The wine is then closed, stored and placed in a slightly inverted position. Dead yeast is removed on the procedure of fermentation by carefully shaking the bottle so the dead yeast will slid down and end up in the head of the bottle. The neck of the bottle is then frozen so that the dead yeast will stay on the top and the cap is skilfully separated which then pops the dead yeast out of the bottle. Resealing is then done using a cork and the wine is now ready to drink.

The transfer method is an evolved method of the Methode Champenoise. Same procedure to that of Methode Champenoise is done in the Transfer method but the only difference is that the process does not include riddling to remove the sediment but instead the wine is transferred to a pressure tank where the sediment is separated. The wine is then bottled, corked and sealed with a wired hood before it is sold in the market.

The other method which is the Charmat Bulk procedure is various from the first two because secondary fermentation occurs inside a large pressure tank. This method is efficient if you want to produce a large volume of sparkling wine. Charmat Bulk procedure is known to be the fastest and cheapest way to make sparkling wines. In a large pressure tank with controlled temperature, yeast and sugar are added in the Charmat Bulk process. Quality of wine using this procedure is lower compared to that made in the traditional method. The bubbles in this sparkling wine are larger because it did not spend the same amount time compared to the traditional method.

As for the carbonation procedure, carbon dioxide is injected to the wine. When fermentation is finished, wine is then bubbled or carbonated just like the procedure used in soft drinks. The carbonation method is fast and cheap but the quality made is inferior.

The most pricey and needs more effort is the Methode Champenoise but it is the best in making high quality sparkling wines. Natural fermentation occurs in this procedure thus making the sparkling wine is not abused by excessive movements.

Plenty of sparkling wine makers can be found all over the world. Makers of sparkling wine will use their preferred method to achieve customer satisfaction. The quality and the price of the sparkling wine do not just count on the quality of the materials used but also the method used. Well, whatever method is applied in making the sparkling line, it is still up to the customer what he/she chooses to buy.
