Dear Members and Friends,

The Northern Virginia Chapter of the AWS will have the first meeting of the new year on Friday, January 6, 2023 at 7:00pm. We will once again be meeting at The Falls Church Episcopal, located at 115 East Fairfax St., Falls Church, VA 22046. 

We'll be starting the year with a bang (or a satisfied sigh) as Annette Schiller be presenting us with several sparkling wines. I'll have more details in the near future.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Annette already provided similar presentations, with different sparkling wines, at the National Convention of the American Wines Society in 2021 and at the German Wine Society (Washington DC Chapter). See the two postings below. Both postings contain the powerpoint presentations Annette used at the tastings.

Abstract - National Convention of the American Wines Society in 2021 
 
The market of sparkling wine has seen the fastest-growing trend over the last decade, with world-wide consumption up 56%. It can be confusing to see all the different labels, with prices vacillating between just a few dollars per bottle to close to one hundred.

There is Champagne, Cava, Crémant, Prosecco, Sekt, and recent trendy additions, such as Pet-Nat, to name just a few. But they all have one thing in common: they have significant levels of carbon dioxide in the bottle to make them fizzy. We will taste six sparkling wines from around the globe and will evaluate the difference in the various methods of how the CO2 gets into the bottle.
