Greetings Steemit friends!
Since we are entering the New Year, a time when gatherings with family and friends are often in full swing, I wanted to share 5 of my favorite sparkling wines that are under $15.
In my opinion, a little bubbly is perfect for any occasion and any time of year, but if you find yourself needing to bring a bottle to an event -- I hope you find this list extra helpful!
1) Dibion Cava Brut Reserve
Country: Spain
Grapes: Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada
Average Price: $11
This is an excellent sparkling wine for a great value! Light gold in color, it is crisp and light-bodied on the palate with flavors of apple and citrus. Delicious and bright!
2) Freixenet Sparkling Cordon Negro Brut Cava
Country: Spain
Grapes: Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada
Average Price: $10
Another excellent cava from Spain, this one boasts a fresh, fruity aroma with citrusy flavors. Easy sipping!
3) Le Colture NV Fagher Brut (Prosecco Superiore)
Country: Italy
Grapes: Glera
Average Price: $15
Prosecco is often thought of as Italy’s cheap, poor quality sparkling wine -- but this prosecco is quite the opposite. Creamy, crisp, high quality, and perfect to enjoy on any occasion.
4) Segura Viudas Brut Reserva Cava
Country: Spain
Grapes: Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada
Average Price: $10
Cool, crisp, tasty and considered one of the most reliable Cavas at this price point. Not to be missed!
5) Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Brut
Country: USA
Grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Average Price: $12
This is a lovely, bubbly, balanced brut with citrus notes and lasting fizz. Light and delicious!
Hope you find these recommendations helpful and enjoyable. Cheers!
