Champagne, Prosecco & Sparkling Wine · 50 wines

All three are sparkling, but they differ by origin and method. Champagne (France) is bottle-fermented in the traditional method, giving fine bubbles and bready, complex flavours. Cava (Spain) uses the same method at a friendlier price. Prosecco (Italy) is tank-made, lighter, fruitier and softer. English sparkling, made the traditional way, now rivals Champagne itself.

Non-vintage Champagne is ready to drink and best enjoyed within three or four years. Vintage bottles will reward longer keeping. Either way, store on its side somewhere cool and dark, away from light and temperature swings.

Between 8°C and 10°C. Around three hours in the fridge, or twenty minutes in a bucket of ice and water — which chills more evenly than ice alone. Avoid the freezer, as it dulls the aromatics.
