Выдержано под водой Это делают все: греки, калифорнийцы, испанцы и французские шампанисты, которым до моря, вроде, не близко. Глянем на три интересных хозяйства, выдерживающих вина не там, где мы привыкли: 1. Gaia, вино Thalassitis, Санторини, Греция. Не все брачующиеся, приезжающие на Санторини ради фотки в белом среди голубого, в курсе, что здесь делают первоклассные вулканические вина. Хозяйство Gaia (“Гейя”) выдерживает на глубине моря вино из сорта ассиртико. 2. Leclerc Briant, Cuvée Abyss, Brut Zéro, Шампань, Франция. Это вино погружается в соль моря на один год. Помимо вышеназванного дома, за экспериментами замечены M.Hostomme, Louis Roederer, Veuve Clicquot и другие дома. 3. Bisson, вино Abissi (не удивительно, тоже “бездна”), Лигурия, Италия. Игристое вино по классическому методу лежит под водой у берегов Портофино в течение 13 месяцев. При желании найдёте #FunFacts@TheWineology
