About the Book

The definitive guide to champagne and other sparkling wines. Champagne is delicious; we love its flavour, we love its fizz. Champagne’s association with success, partying and fun are as ingrained in the wine as the bubbles themselves. As the godfather of champagne, Dom Pérignon, famously declared: ‘Brothers, I’m drinking stars’. But there’s more to fizz than just champagne. Prosecco’s meteoric rise in popularity has opened up our taste buds to other sparkling wines: from the glacial hills of Treviso, the lava slopes of Mount Etna, rural Brazil to the more genteel South Downs of England, the choice is vast. There has never been a better time to enjoy a glass of bubbly. Navigation is important as the new and exotic vintages aren’t all wonderful, and this is where Davy Zyw can help. As one of the country’s leading experts in sparkling wine, Davy explains why each of the 101 entries has made the cut. This is the ultimate ice-bucket list for fizz fans, and every bottle in this book will knock your socks off.

About the Author :
Davy Zyw started his wine career in Edinburgh, moving to London's Mayfair as a sommelier at La Gavroche, later moving to Tesco where he developed the Italian wine range. After four years at Laithwaites/Direct Wine as Italy and Champagne wine buyer, he is currently buyer for Champagne and Italian Wines at Berry Bros & Rudd. His first Book, I Love Champagne, was published in 2017.  He is 30 and lives in London. 

Review :
'Hook up with one of the country's leading experts on sparkling wine to get the most from your fizz' 'Fun and informative, an easy read and a dip inna. I particularly liked the food matches and the occasions to enjoy the bubbly brew, which include “successfully building something from Ikea: or “Skyfall is on the telly”. So the next time you have something to celebrate with a glass of fizz you can do a lot worse than try some of Davy’s selections' 'Recommended for listophiles and champagne lovers: first you can flick through to count up how many you have tasted, then you can dive in to Zyw’s engaging and informative mini-portraits to find out about each one. A good stocking filler'
