sparkling wines

Carbonated celebratory drinks

Sparkling wines are wines containing dissolved carbon dioxide, which produces bubbles when poured.

The carbonation may result from natural fermentation in the bottle—as with Champagne and other méthode traditionnelle wines—or from injection.

We brought sparkling wine for the toast.

The category includes Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, and countless others.
