You get a reasonable Prosecco (dry, tasty, with a nice "perlage", not sweet) for around 450 baht. So why do want to buy a Cuvée?  

 

A Cuvée is just a mixed up (often industrial made) wine from several locations and harvest years. With or without bubbles doesen't matter. It's a low quality product.

I like the taste.

"Yellow Brute Curvee in Thailand?"

"Brute Curvee"?  A real connoisseur.

Thanks for your compliment, I appreciate it. 🙂

It's also the first 2000 litres of juice from 4000kg of grapes.

 

The best quality.

Emmm, you are talking about "Champagne" / France. thats a total different story...

The definition of "Champagne" includes the right of AOC (Appellation d’Origine Protegée).

 

Carlyai asked about a sparkling wine - origin Australia.

 

The expression "Cuvée" or "Cuvee" is worldwide (exclusive region "Champagne France") a mixed blend of different wineries and years. So forget "This is the best quality".

 

Nonsens.

 

If you are interested....

Blending is the keyword. Read carefully. And Nappy valley produces wines in comparance to France since when? ... A joke that (typically U.S.) they think they have some kind of culture in dining.

This has to do with France. (sic)

 

One can be a "gourmand" or a "gourmet". Both enjoy excellent dining and a pleasant glass of wine if it matches.

 

Same same - but different...

Appellation d’Origine Protegée

The french, as also italians and other countries in europe were forced to get "fussy" about AOC / AOP. Just see how many things are produced under the original name - but no ties to it. Cheeses: Gouda (NL), Emmental (CH), Feta (EL) etc.pp are produced worldwide in many countries - but have nothing to do with the origin.

 

Yeah, I know that I'm a bit too serious about this. But to understand what I eat and drink is enjoyable. 🙂 And my wife is a goddess in cooking and breadmaking.... etc.pp.  ...and spoils me since years.

 

It's a hard life sometimes. Hehehe...
