Welcome once again to shayorepublic.com, today is the day we discuss champagne. the pronunciation
of this is really open to suggestion, if i recall Falz the bad guy had a
funny way of doing that during one of his skits. Anyway the brand we are
discussing today is going to be Moet. For the dudes who pop champagne in the
club would've definitely come across this brand no matter what, even those who
have a phone with media even if na "chinco" would've sha heard a song
in which it was mentioned. The company that produces this is actually called Moet
and Chandon or you could just call it Moet no problem.
It is of French origin and
is one of the world’s largest expansive champagne producers. It was established
in 1743 by Claude Moet and produce approximately 28,000,000 bottles of
champagne yearly. You guys know Dom Perignon right? it's a brand of champagne
produced by Moet. It's named after a Dom Perignon, a Benedictine monk who was
an important quality pioneer for champagne wine but who, contrary to what is
commonly said he didn't discover the champagne method for making sparkling
wines.
Dom Perignon is a vintage champagne, meaning that it is only made in the
best years and all grapes used to make the wine were harested in the same year.
Many other champagnes by contrast, are non vintage which means that the
champagne is made from grapes harvested in various years. now the production of
vintage wines sounds complex and has plenty wahala to be honest. Around 5
million bottles are produced in each vintage. The wine is 60% Chardonnay and
40% Pinot Noir with 6 g/l dosage.
So this champagne isn't like very alcoholic
like that it is 12% in an attractive 750ml bottle. now we have spoken about
everything except the taste itself. now how can i possibly paint this picture
without it sounding like an exaggeration of some sort. ok so imagine yeah,
attempting to ingest a liquid that makes love to your tongue and cheek at the
same damn time while in your mouth. that bubbly feeling is basically reserved
for the other worldy beings things only imagined and almost always eternally
sought after. I would've used the Pringles catch phrase but that wouldn't
completely be true because you will stop after you can't afford any more
bottles or if you're a lightweight so there is that. Also there is also the
Brut imperial Rose is a blend of the three wine varieties with an emphasis on
Pinot Noir and has a rich rose color with lots of lively raspberry and lovely
texture: elegant, racy,seamless and long. We shall delve in to the Rose matter properly next week. Fun fact: more than 20% of production
at Moet et Chandon is actually rose. It has the scent of wild strawberries and
it also has this zestful assertive fruitiness which makes it unique in its own
way.
So now my fellow alcoholics, don't let your earnings stop you from having a
good time. Go "pop" a bottle of champagne or two in the club have fun, after all you only live once right? Unless you believe in re-incarnation but that wouldn't help me make my point so I consider it irrelevant right now. So yes enjoy. Same time next week.. see you then
Well written
