Knowing how it is made, now we must serve it correctly, since, although it may not seem like it, it has its art.
First, although it is popular to see how it is shaken in movies or on television, this should not be done, since part of the properties, flavour and that touch that makes it special are lost.
Next, with the help of a cloth or the metal closure itself, we must gently uncork it without turning it, preventing it from shooting out. It is important to know that we must gently move the bottle, not the cork, and all taking our time.
This is important when keeping Galician sparkling wine cold. It should not be at fridge temperature, as it can become more tasteless and acidic than normal. The temperature of the Galician sparkling wine must be between 8-12 degrees, so it must be kept in a cool place.
At the time of serving and drinking, we should not take the glass with the hand from the top, it should be held by the stem or the base, this way we will avoid heating the drink and we will maintain its flavour.
The appropriate glasses must be elongated, in this way the bubbles will remain for longer, but elongated enough to be able to enjoy the aroma of the Galician sparkling wine.
These are our recommendations to be able to enjoy the sparkling wines of Galicia in a more traditional way and being able to appreciate all the nuances that this drink has.
