Riesling for me is the hero for pairing, it is so easy to pair with food and presents levels of sweetness that make it incredibly complementary with Indonesian cuisine. Even a simple vegetable pairing with Riesling will not go wrong!
Raising a glass of bubbly to toast at any event is a symbol of celebration, it makes it a party, fun! For me bubbly is a instant mood changer, the lovely appearance of the bubble, the fresh tempting aroma, even the sound of bubble in the glass (try to listen to your wine bubbles in the glass, you will be thrilled!). Do you know that back in history, sparking wine was called as "The Devil's Wine" as it was dangerous and caused many accidents due to the bottles explosing! In the old days winemakers controlled this interesting but uncontrollable wine with heavy metal masks, until the British, around 17th century, found an interest in sparkling wine instead of their regular still wine that was supposed to be received from the Champagne producing area.
