There is nothing like a good bottle of Champagne to celebrate or party away in luxury! However, good champagnes can set you back from anywhere between a couple of hundred to thousands of ringgit. Here are four bubbly alternatives you can try that are a little easier on the pocket and taste great too!
Canevari Prosecco
Country: Italy
Region: Veneto
Type: Dry
Body: Light
One of the best values ever in Prosecco around! Light and delicate with an extremely fine bead. Beautiful straw color, fresh dough in the aroma, and a refreshingly dry finish. Enjoy it with a wide range of cold dishes.
Villa Conchi 'Brut Seleccion' Cava
Country: Spain
Region: Cava
Type: Fruity
Body: Medium
The Brut Seleccion is a generous bubbly, with great balance of aromas between fruits and toasted nuances. Simply a great-value sparkling wine! This is an addictive, creamy bubbly which will please everyone from beginners to more fancy palate!
Codorniu Clasico Cava
Country: Spain
Region: Cava
Type: Fruity
Body: Full
Straw-yellow in colour, with slightly grassy hints and a good nose. Its characteristic bouquet reveals its long ageing with spicy and nutty hints. On the palate, you can note a touch of acidity which gives it an agreeably fresh finish. Enjoy at any time, or match with rich fish dishes.
Danzante Prosecco
Country: Italy
Region: Veneto
Type: Dry
Body: Light
With a light golden-yellow colour, the bouquet features a light orchard fruit tone, recalling white peaches and pears. On the palate the taste is very clean, refreshing and has a bright acidity. Perfect as an aperitif, or with light dishes light seafood or salads.
Of course, these sparkling wines are not the same as champagnes. They are made using different types of grapes and even methods. They are also considerably cheaper. However, this doesn't mean they're not as good!
Give them a try and let us know if you think they are great alternatives or if they don't even come close!
