Audra Ligumsky Suite 101 wine contributing edito Here is a new question
from a reader. Does anyone know the answer? I'll let you know Juanette in a
couple of days if no one posts the correct answer.

Brut Champagnes and Sparkling Wines are typically made with a certain type
of grape. Here at my office we are having a time with this one. I say that Brut
Champagnes and Sparkling Wines are made with Semillon Grapes.

What is your answer to this question.

Please advise. Thanks

Juanette

Greg Cruey

I began last year making home made wines. One of my early discoveries was that bread yeast died at about 10 percent alcohol - a little under the normal level in wine. Since then I have been buying wine yeast. And I recently discovered a "Pasteur Champagne" yeast. Is the yeast what makes a sparkling wines? I just starked fermenting what I hope will be my first batch of "Blueberry Champagne"...

» willowstar - open bottle of champagne in fridge

We have a bottle of champagne circa 1983, opened on dec. 31. only one glass was poured. Can the remainder be drank without harmful effects. In other words, does champagne have a shelf life (quite apart from whether it is still bubbley.
