Production of base wine blends Explanation: En cuanto a un vino de corte (o genérico, o blend, o assamblage, o multivarietal) es aquel conformado por dos o más tipos de cepa de uva. https://www.devinosyvides.com.ar/nota/156-vinos-varietales-y... HPLC-UV/vis data consisting of compositional profiles of relevant analytes has been exploited to characterize cava wines produced from different base wine blends using chemometrics. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6352232/ Most sparkling wines go through two fermentations: one to turn the grape juice into still wine without bubbles (that’s called a base wine) and a subsequent one to turn the base wine into bubbly wine. The winemaker instigates the second fermentation by adding yeasts and sugar to the base wine. The added yeasts convert the added sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2) bubbles. https://www.dummies.com/food-drink/drinks/wine/the-methods-o... After a lovely pub lunch in Tillington, we headed to Hambledon. Ian Kellett has ambitious plans here, and his focus is on chalk soils and Chardonnay. The wines are pretty spectacular.
