CONT

The "liqueur de tirage" is then a mixture of sugar, yeast and still champagne wine.

CONT

The Guardian picked up on the book's uncovering of a 17th century document that proved beyond doubt that the English used a second fermentation to convert still Champagne into sparkling wine at least six years before Dom Pérignon even set foot in the Abbey of Hautvillers.

OBS

Non sparkling.

  • Boissons (Industrie de l'alimentation)
DEF

Vin blanc sec de Champagne, non champagnisé.

CONT

Une certaine quantité de vin s'échappe lors du dégorgement, et l'on compense alors cette perte, par une quantité de liqueur de dosage : mélange de sucre de canne et de champagne tranquille. La teneur en sucre de la liqueur est déterminante pour le type du vin et sa douceur relative.
