“My only regret in life is that I didn’t drinkenough Champagne” – John Maynard Keynes

“Th ere comes a time in every woman’s life when the only thing that helps is a glass of Champagne”– Bette Davis

“In victory, you deserve Champagne, in defeat, you need it” – Napoleon Bonaparte

What’s the diff erence between Cham-

pagne and sparkling wine? Champagne

is a region in France that produces

the world’s fi nest sparkling wines. Any sparkling

wine produced outside Champagne is not Cham-

pagne but simply sparkling wine, therefore, all

that sparkles is not Champagne. Th e region of

Champagne lies at a major crossroads in northern

Europe in the river valleys that lead both south to

the Mediterranean and west to Paris as well as the

English Channel.

Champagne is made very much as it was in the

days of Dom Perignon, a monk credited with im-

proving the quality and helping develop it from a

still to sparkling wine. First, a still wine is made

from Pinot Menunier, Pinot Noir and/or Char-

donnay. Th e wines are put in a stout bottle along

with yeast and sugar. Th e yeast converts the sugar

into carbon dioxide which is held in solution until

disgorgement. Disgorgement is the opening of the

bottle to remove the yeast. It is at this point that

liquor (a mixture of older reserve Champagne and

sugar) is added to create the desired balance be-

tween sugar and acidity. Th is method of performing

the secondary fermentation in the bottle is called

methode champenois. Any sparkling wine pro-

duced this way used to be called method champe-

nois but now even that term for Champagne cannot

be used outside of the Champagne region. Th ese

naturally fermented sparklers are now called meth-

ode traditional. Lower quality sparkling wines can

be made in bulk by adding sugar and yeast in a tank,

called the Charmat process which is the adopted

method for making Prosecco. Th ere is also the op-

tion of simply injecting CO2 into a tank fi lled with

wine, however this is reserved for only the lowest

quality wines.

Fine quality method traditional sparklers are

produced all over the world. Many are as expen-

sive as real Champagne but there are quite a few

bargains that will make for excellent drinking dur-

ing the holidays, as well as any time you want to

enjoy a fi ne sparkling wine without putting a dent

in your wallet.

Spanish CavaI feel the very best inexpensive sparklers come

from the San Sadurni di Noya region of Spain.

Here, in the shadow of the Pyrenees Mountains,

Macabeo, Xarel-Lo, Parellada and Chardonnay

are planted alone with the red varietials Monas-

trell, Garnacha and Pinot Noir. For years our larg-

est selling Cava has been Segura Viudas, ($8.99)

a small estate purchased by Cava giant Freixenet

that still produces exceptional wine. It is light, clean

fresh and dry. What more can you ask for from a

wine at this price? A top of the line Cava, Gran

Gesta ($13.99) is elegant and balanced with apple,

pear and citrus fl avors. It is aged 16 months before

disgourgement, similar to many Champagnes.

ProseccoAnyone who has traveled to Italy or eaten in

a fi ne Italian restaurant is probably familiar with

the joy of having a bottle of Prosecco before a meal.

Made primarily in the district of Valdobbiadene

in the region of Veneto, Prosecco has experienced

quite a surge in popularity today.

Prosecco is the name of the grape that is used

to make this sparkling wine and many of the best

examples are 100% Prosecco. Prized for its delicate

fl avors and aromatics, the wine itself is not made in

the classic method traditional but rather, the Char-

mat method.

Now while the Charmat method is used to

make some pretty awful sparkling wine (think of

the worst stuff you’ve ever had to gulp at a wedding

reception), in this case the producers of Prosecco use

this method to create some truly charming wines

that are usually enjoyed within a year of the vintage,

although the best can be aged for several years.

While there are some ordinary examples of

Prosecco made, there are a handful of producers that

consistently create fi rst-rate wines. Lilliana Prosecco

($14.99) is a lovely wine with a soft, creamy moose,

lush mouthfeel, fl avors of pear, peach and citrus and

a creamy fi nish. For

those looking for a

serious Prosecco, try

La Tordera ($17.99),

a rare brut Prosecco

with dry, crisp toasty

fl avors and a long fi nish.

French Sparkling WinesMany very fi ne sparkling

wines are produced outside of

Champagne in France. Large houses

just outside of Burgundy produce

some well made sparklers at very rea-

sonable prices. Try the Che-

valier Brut Blanc de Blanc

($9.99) or the Fleuraison

Blanc de Blanc ($11.99).

Another excellent value in

French sparkling wines is from the

region of Savoie in the French Alps.

Here, Pierre Boniface makes

a lovely Brut de Savoie

($17.99) from traditional

Jacquere grapes. It is lively

and dry with very fresh, delicate fl avors that remind

you of a mountain spring.

Th e Real Deal- Champagne

Sparkling wines have their place but the fi nest

are still made in Champagne. Here are some of my

favorites. Th e house of Jacquart is making a come-

back in the US. Th eir highly regarded Brut is dry,

crisp and balanced with rich, creamy, toasty fl avors

and a long, clean fi nish. Th e tiny house of Jean Lau-

rent makes only Premier Cru Champagne from

either 100% Chardonnay, called a Blanc de Blanc

or 100% Pinot Noir, called a Blanc de Noir. Both

are excellent and sell for only $39.99 a bottle. A

Champagne houses top of the line is called a tete de

cuvee. Th e Diamant Bleu from Vranken ($99.99)

is available in the 1999 vintage and shows notes of

lemon and apple in its full bodied, toasty, buttery

and yeasty persona.

else. So show your community pride

and support the local literary scene by

buying and giving some of these fi ne

selections from the year past.

NatureRuka Press, an environmental

publisher that debuted on the Hill

this year, off ers two attractive titles

for the naturalist on your gift list.

“Among the Ancients: Adventures in

the Eastern Old-Growth Forests” by

Joan Maloof provides both a science

and history lesson and the kind of

personal and observant nature writ-

ing that makes you want to take to

the woods. Katie Fallon’s “Cerulean

Blues: A Personal Search for a Van-

ishing Songbird” is both an engaging

travelogue and a passionate plea for a

tiny warbler whose habitat is threat-

ened by Appalachian coal mining and

Columbian coff ee growing.

In “Back to the Wild Life,” for-

mer Hill staff er Nancy Lifset tells a

hilarious, baboon-ridden tale of her

experience as a volunteer on a wild-

life sanctuary in Namibia, followed by

her much-needed respite in the wine-

growing countryside of South Africa.

Journalist Hannah Nordhaus, who

grew up on Capitol Hill, details the

plight of the honeybees and beekeep-

ers who provide “the glue that holds

much of our agricultural system to-

gether” in “Th e Beekeeper’s Lament:

How One Man and Half a Billion

Honey Bees Help Feed America.”

KidsAdam Melon and his friend

Sam protect Capitol Hill from the

criminal element when they become

Junior Special Agents for the FBI

in Katy Kelly’s newest adventure for

kids, “Melonhead and the Undercov-

er Operation.”

In “Shine!,” fi rst-time author

Peggy Walton tells an inspiring story

of two little fi refl y sisters who leave

the warmth of their family circle to

fi nd out what’s beyond the familiar

boundaries of home.

Chuck McCutcheon makes a

clear, convincing, and reasoned case

for why our environment is in trouble

and what can be done about it in his

earth-friendly book for young read-

ers, “What Are Global Warming and

Climate Change?”

Washington, D.C.“Washington DC: Views of the

Past & Present” juxtaposes historic

photos with stunning new shots by

George Ross Jezek and commentary

by Hill historian Lucinda Janke to

reveal a city that continues to adapt,

adjust, and thrive.

In “Lost Washington, D.C.,” na-

tive Washingtonian John DeFerrari

invites readers to join him in his time

machine as he brings to life some of

the fl avor of the nation’s capital in its

earlier days.

Find out what literary luminaries

such as Mark Twain, Charles Dick-

ens, and Louisa May Alcott thought

about our nation’s capital in “Liter-

ary Capital: A Washington Reader,”

a compendium of letters, essays, and

fi ction compiled by editor Christo-

pher Sten.

Garrett Peck’s “Prohibition in

Washington, D.C.: How Dry We

Weren’t” recalls the more than 16-

year dry spell that didn’t quite ‘take’

in D.C., where speakeasies abounded

and bootleggers made deliveries in

the halls of Congress.

Fiction“Th e School of Night,” Louis

Bayard’s fast-paced tale of murder

and bibliophilic mayhem, careens be-

tween a secret Renaissance cabal of

learned man who dabbled in the dark

arts and the race by a Capitol Hill

scholar to fi nd a missing letter before

an unscrupulous book collector gets

his hands on it.

In Martha Grimes’ latest mys-

tery, “Fadeaway Girl,” twelve-year-old

Emma Graham uses her notoriety as

the witness and near-victim of a mur-

der to land herself a job as newspaper

reporter and then sets out to interview

anyone who can help solve the decades-

old cold case of a kidnapped baby.

Simon Conway’s “A Loyal Spy,”

the 2010 winner of the CWA Ian

Fleming Steel Dagger Th riller of the

Year award, brings to life the politi-

cal events of the past 20 years in what

Th e Times of London calls “a rivet-

ing alternative history [full of ] con-

spiracy, undercover intelligence and

multiple betrayals.”

MemoirIn his moving and powerful

memoir, “A Haunting Beauty: Viet-

nam Th rough the Eyes of an Artist.”

Jim Magner, author of this paper’s

“Art and the City” column, evocative-

ly nails not only the “wild beauty” of

Vietnam, but also the sounds, smells,

and feel of jungle warfare.

HOLIDAY BOOKSby Karen Lyon

A book about an endangered bird was one of two titles published this year by new Hill publisher Ruka Press.

Capitol Hill is one big playground for Katy Kelly’s mischievous but well-meaning kids in “Melonhead and the Undercover Operation.”

Side-by-side photos of DC then and now, paired with captions by Lucinda Janke, serve as a reminder of the vibrant nature of our hometown.

“Rockin’ with Porch Memories,” edited by L. Claire Kincannon, recalls a bygone era of lazy afternoons and lemonade.

provisioned with more than four

dozen recipes.

Margaret Hollister vividly

recalls the sights and sounds of

growing up as the daughter of

missionaries in Peking in her

memoir, “Inheriting China.”

“What was it like to be a mis-

sionary kid?” she writes. “Primar-

ily it meant being good. Th ere

were no other options.”

In a frank and witty memoir,

“Don’t Kill the Birthday Girl:

Tales From an Allergic Life,” poet

and former Hill Rag writer Sandra

Beasley describes life as one of the

more than 12 million Americans

diagnosed with food allergies.

History and LiteratureIn “You Need a Schoolhouse:

Booker T. Washington, Julius

Rosenwald, and the Building

of Schools for the Segregated

South,” Hill writer Stephanie

Deutsch tells the story of the

unlikely partnership between

the civil rights leader and the

wealthy president of Sears, Roe-

buck and Company that resulted

in the building of much-needed

schools for black students in the

early 20th century.

“Rockin’ with Porch Memo-

ries,” edited by Hill author L.

Claire Kincannon, is a charming

compendium of stories, photos,

poetry, and vignettes that began

as student project at Loudon

Valley High School and includes

interviews of people from all

over Virginia.

Inspired by his own parents’

meeting in Washington Square

Park, Ariel Sabar investigates

and relates the true stories of

nine couples who met at well-

known landmarks in New York

City in “Th e Heart of the City:

Nine Stories of Love and Ser-

endipity on the Streets of New

York.”

Former Hill resident Jona-

than Yardley, Pulitzer Prize-win-

ning book critic for Th e Wash-

ington Post, shares his thoughts

on 60 books that he’s reading for

the second – or in some cases, the

fourth or fi fth – time, in “Second

Unsung Heroes •••Bryan Lynch, HolisticMusicWorks

Trumpeter Bryan Lynch’s trib-

ute to some underappreciated trum-

pet masters is a fi ne example to the

extract “full many a fl ower is born to

blush unseen and waste its sweetness

on the desert air.” Highlights include

“Household Of Saud (Charles Toll-

iver),” “RoditiSamba” dedicated to

Claudio Roditi, and “Big Red (Tom-

my Turrentine).” Other unsung heroes

include Idrees Sulieman, Louis Smith,

Kamau Adilifu, Joe Gordon, Ira Sul-

livan, Donald Byrd, and Howard Mc-

Ghee.

Medicine •••Tab Benoit, Telarc

Blues singer Tab Benoit is in ab-

solutely peak form on this album with

heartwarming songs like “Sunrise,”

“Nothing Takes Th e Place Of You,”

and “Next To Me.” Th ese are songs

that personify the true meaning of the

blues when we can connect our own

personal lives to what we are listen-

ing to. Truly remarkable performances

from Mr. Benoit.

Love and Sax •••Elan Trotman, E.T. MuzikProductions

Love and Sax is the second con-

temporary jazz album from Elan

Trotman, a talented young musician

who plays tenor and soprano sax and

fl ute with a suave, silky smooth style.

Mr. Troman’s songs are intoxicatingly

inviting, beautifully melodic and soul-

fully inspired R&B instrumentals.

40 Acres and a Burro •••Arturo O’Farrill & Th e AfroLatin Orchestra, Zoho Music

One peculiar aspect about most

Latin music is that every rhythm and

every beat evokes the Latin musical

culture and its infectious attractive

dance styles. Th e opening

track, “Rumba Urbana,” is

the unveiling of the curtain

into a world of carnivals,

street festivities, and exotic

beaches of endless summers.

Night Song •••Ketil Bjornstad& SvanteHenryson, ECM

Th e night brings an end

to day and tells us that this is

the beginning of the end of

many things to come. Th ere

is a sense of premonition, a

sort of uncertainty or uneas-

iness, as the day fades away.

Pianist Ketil Bjornstad and

cellist Svante Henryson’s

latest album, Night Song,

confi rms our brief moment

with life and how we feel

about it as we hope and

await the coming morning.

Rruga •••Collin Vallon Trio, ECM

At its best, the music of jazz is about

the story of its musicians and their real

life experiences. Nonetheless, it’s how

jazz is expressed that gives the music

its beauty and sophistication. Pianist

Collin Vallon’s debut album with its

richly endowment of poetic largesse,

is a fi ne example. Th is is a piano trio

whose gifted leader is infl uenced more

by singers than pianists, and the group

‘sings’ in its own unique way – with an

emphasis on melody, texture, shading,

and dynamics.

Forever ••••Corea, Clarke & White,Concord

Here is a priceless collection (2

CDs) for all die-hards jazz fans from

three great masters: Chick Corea

(piano/keyboards), Stanley Clarke

(electric/acoustic bass), Lenny White

(drums), along with special guest stars

Bill Conners (guitar), Jean-Luc Pon-

ty (violin), and Chaka Khan. Th is is

quintessential jazz music of great per-

formances like “Waltz for Debby,” “La

Cancion de Sofi a,” and “No Mystery,”

“Captain Marvel,” “Crescent,” “After

Th e Cosmic Rain,” and “500 Miles

High.” But the real magic is to hear

Chaka Khan on “I Love You, Porgy”

and “High Wire.”

Live At Birdland ••••Lee Konitz, Brad Mehldau, Charlie Haden & Paul Motian, ECM

A beautiful jazz album from three

of the best contemporary musicians

performing standards like “I Fall

In Love Too Easily,” “Lover Man,”

“Oleo” and “You Stepped Out Of A

Dream.”

Troubadour Live •••Eric Bibb, Telarc

Th is Eric Bibb’s latest album and

features guitarist Staff an Astner with

standouts like “Connected,” “For You,”

and “If You Were Not My Woman.”

Light My Fire •••Eliane Elias, Concord

Brazilian jazz pianist and singer

Eliane Elias is exceptional on her lat-

est; you are going to love this woman

and her soft, incandescent voice on

such pieces like the title track, “Light

My Fire,” “Aquele Abraco,” “Made In

Moonlight,” and “Take Five.”

American Road •••Th e Tierney Sutton Band, BFM Jazz

Tierney Sutton is one of today’s

best jazz singers and every album

of hers is a gift from her heart and

soul. Her singing is at times heavy,

fl irtatious, whimsical, and beguiling.

Thoughts Of A Jazz LoverJazz can be enigmatic, an alchemy of mysterious sounds and moods that is spon-

taneous and yet deliberate in its free fl owing creativity. Th e music can be complex, but

good jazz feels as simple as fi rst love — it goes straight to the heart and rests there,

beating gently. At times, the music can be so life-like that it speaks to you with honesty

and love. One still gets a keen sense of understanding of the complexity of the music.

Th ere is such a high note of haughtiness, perhaps a sort of natural aristocracy from

a kind of inbred austerity about jazz that puts it in a class by itself, elevating one to a

higher ground of one’s consciousness. It almost borders on elitism, and yet jazz strikes

one as a beautiful music for everyone. And it is, especially for those of us who not only

enjoy but truly love the music. True, most good jazz musicians more than likely think

of jazz as the arbiter of modern music. And on a good day, I think they are correct.

You can walk in your door after a hard day’s work and a harrowing Metro ride, put

on Sarah Vaughn and your world is transformed. Your mind clears, your body relaxes

and suddenly life is pretty good. Th ere’s no drug in the world that can do that. Jazz is

beautiful music.

Native Sun •••Producer: Blitz Th eAmbassador, Fatbeats

Th is album features some of the

most interesting music I have heard

this year. It caught me completely

off -guard — and I loved it. Check

out “En-Trance,” “Native Sun,” fea-

turing Shad, “Best I Can,” featuring

Corneille, “Accra City Blues,” “Wa-

hala,” featuring Keziah Jones, Ba-

louji, Bnegao, and Bocafl oja.

Stranger,” “Oh Shenandoah/Th e

Water Is White,” “Amazing Grace,”

“Summertime,” and “My Man’s

Gone Now.”

Embraceable •••Nicole Henry, AstistShare

Vocalist Nicole Henry’s latest al-

bum off ers a glimpse of the soul and

elegance of this young, vibrant and

contemporary jazz singer. Winners

are “A Little Time Alone,” “Even

While You’re Gone,” “Waiting In

Vain,” and “Embraceable You.”

Brewster’s Rooster ••••John Surman, ECM

Saxophonist John Surman’s

beautiful sound on Brewster’s Roost-

er is a perfect match for the fl awless

styles of guitarist John Abercrom-

bie and drummer Jack DeJonnette

along with the counterpoint of bass-

ist Drew Gress. And while the im-

provisation is at times brilliant and

introspective, the music remains true

to its form and beauty on “Chelsea

Bridge,” “Counter Measures,” and “

Brewster’s Rooster.”

Interface •••Jim Snidero, Savant

Alto saxophonist Jim Snidero has

that smooth, bucolic sound that has

often helped defi ne jazz as “that cool

music.” And on pieces like “Silhou-

ette,” “One By One,” and “Expecta-

tions,” such cool jazz music is strik-

ingly fi tting for those long, warm,

and breezy summer days.

Black Tie Affair •••Jeff Logan, Bass-mint Records

Keyboardist Jeff Logan’s songs

of sweet, sticky melodies are pro-

duced over jazz-pop instrumentals

and sensual R&B grooves. Bursting

forth with radiant light and play-

ful, quixotic instrumental fl ourishes,

Mr. Logan’s natural, easy way with

melodies unfolds with “Elevator Up,”

“Sweet Sticky Th ing,” and the title

track “Black Tie Aff air.”
