BUBBLES
WITH
SUNSHINE
Has
Been
Amazing
Year
For
Champagne
(By
ROBERT
C.
WILSON)
PARIS
There
are
40,000
Frenchmen
bubbling
with
joy
because
the
sun
shone
324
hours
15
August.
Nothing
like
it
has
happened
since
1898,
when
in
August
the
sun
came
out
for
313
hours
and
gave
birth
to
the
"coronation
cuvee."
Consequently,
1947
promises
to
be
for
connoisseurs
the
world
over
what
1945
was
to
atomic
scientists
and
international
politicians.

Tn"a"
word,
it
is
an
amazing
year
for
champagne.
Never,
in
the
memory
of
wine
makers,
have
there
been
such
beautiful,
healthy,
golden
grapes,"
said
Count
Dc
Vogue,
one
of
'France's
major
champagne,
producers.
Tha
brought
up
the
question
of
what
actually
gives
champagne
its
flavor
and
what
makes
it
bubble
and
Count
De
Vogue
explained
that:
"Wine-growing
is
a
science
as
much
in
its
infancy
as
medicine
was
100
years
ago."
But
this
much
is
known:
1.
There
are
20,000
families
engaged
in
growing
grapes
for
champagne,
and
another
