Champagne bucket

An optimum wine temperature also plays an important role when enjoying sparkling wine(cava, champagne, sparkling wine). A metal or glass container for storing the bottle at the table must be sized so that the majority of the bottle is surrounded by the water/ice mixture. Water and ice should be mixed in a 50:50 ratio. The water dissipates the heat within a short time. The ideal serving temperature for the sparkling wine is reached after just 20 to 30 minutes in the ice-water solution. A napkin is draped over the neck of the bottle to dry it and is placed between the palm of the hand and the bottle when pouring.
