History
The name comes from the depths of our history, which we will gladly tell you. Once Peter I stopped in Tsimlyanskaya stanitsa. There was a heavy downpour, it was night, and it was far to Cherkassk. The Cossack Klemenov met the Tsar. He thought that that ordinary officer, without recognizing, and argued with the king about his orders. In the morning Peter I told about who he really is, and told about the wonderful vineyards that he saw abroad. He independently planted a couple of vines, and from this the whole history of growth began. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, about 30,000 bushes of grapes were already growing, as the climate contributed to this. Were imported vines from different countries: Germany, Hungary, Iran and others.
Now this area is considered the cradle of the Don wine making.

Technologies tested by time
The whole secret is that the grapes were harvested late - in October. At this point, the berries are partially dried or, more correctly, fade. The entire crop was put in sheds or under canopies and withered even more until the end of November, until the cold came. Saccharism becomes with such storage up to 35-40%. After that, the grapes were grated on a grater (before that, the technology of pressing in special bags was used). The crushed berries were placed in an open vat, stirred until the mash was starting to wander, and left so. Tsimlyanskoe champagne, before reaching the ready, very slowly wandered and stopped, throwing out not completely. Sweet wine was poured into barrels and stored until March, until it becomes light. After that, it was bottled and sealed with stoppers. The throat of each bottle was tied with wire or twine and dipped in resin. Tsimlyanskoe champagne was kept standing in pits, which were specially torn out, where bottles were placed one on top of another, making strata of straw and earth. There it again wandered and stopped with the addition of sugar and carbon dioxide. Now, of course, champagne, wine, cognac is made using modern equipment that uses advanced technologies.
