Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values

– Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values

With the holidays and the New Year rapidly approaching, everyone is looking for the Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values and you’ve come to the right place! This list represents the best champagne and sparkling wines I’ve recently tasted. Plus, you can actually find these in stores – and they all cost under $50.

The following wines run the gamut from a prestigious yet under-the-radar Champagne to inexpensive, more easy going bubblies from Italy and Spain. Whatever Champagne or Sparkling wine value you choose to celebrate with, it should offer depth, complexity and nuance with a touch of elegance and the wines on this list do just that and are the Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values I’ve come across!

Number One – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

best champagne

Champagne Delamotte Brut – At under $45, Champagne Delamotte is the insiders Champagne you haven’t heard about but need to know about. The sister wine of the vaunted and incredibly expensive Salon Champagne, it offers salon quality at a Hair Cuttery price!

Number Two – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

Costco Champagne – Real Champagne, made by a reputable and well-known Champagne producer. At under $20 Costco Champagne is a Must Buy and potentially one of the best champagne values around.

Number Three – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

Roederer Estate Brut – You’ll think it’s Champagne until you find out how little the Roederer Estate Brut costs! The Roederer Estate Brut is one of my perennial favorite sparkling wine values, made in California by the folks who make the prestigious and widely recognized Cristal Champagne.

Number Four – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

La Marca Prosecco – At under $11 the elegant La Marca Prosecco is easy to open and even easier to enjoy! It’s elegant and understated in it’s approach and would make an excellent aperitif or could be enjoyed throughout the day.

Number Five – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

Lunetta Prosecco – Ringing in at under $10 this refreshing, fun and fruity Italian sparkler is as big on value as it is on personality!

Number Six – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

Rondel Brut Cava – Widely available for under $9, this Spanish Cava is likely to become your go-to Champagne alternative. I was pretty surprised by the low price point on this one and if you’re looking for a well-made bargain, this is one of the Best Champagne alternatives around.

Number Seven – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

La Granja 360 Brut Cava – At under $7 this Spanish Cava is one of the finest sparkling wine values I’ve discovered. It easily tastes like it costs twice as much as it actually does. Find the La Granja Cava in your local Trader Joe’s Wine Section.

Number Eight – Best Champagne and Sparkling Wine Values –

Best Champagne

Jaume Serra Cristalino Brut Cava – Widely distributed and highly-acclaimed, the Jaume Serra Cristalino has been named the top value brand by Wine & Spirits Magazine for three consecutive years! And did I mention that you can find it under $7? It’s the perfect pour for toasts & parties, or for making the perfect mimosa.

Champagne Delamotte Brut Review | Salon Quality at an Affordable Price

Champagne Delamotte

If you’re anything like me, when you start to hear Christmas music,  your inner child gets excited while the grown-up part of you gets instantly stressed with everything the holiday season entails. Not the least of which entails finding elegant, well-crafted Champagne that will impress without also depressing you due to it’s price. But fortunately I may be able to help in at least this one critical area. In terms of sheer bang for the buck, the Costco Kirkland Signature Champagne I recently reviewed is an excellent option but sometimes you want something a little more special and prestigious to celebrate with. Today The Fermented Fruit is actually celebrating a small milestone itself (more on that later). These special occasions call for the Champagne Delamotte Brut.

Costco Champagne

If this is you’re very first visit to The Fermented Fruit then welcome and thanks for visiting! I hope you come back and visit often. If you’re one of my totally incredible regular readers though, then you probably know just how much I love sparkling wine, especially Champagne!

Despite my profound love of Champagne, I can’t bring myself to regularly spend upwards of $40 on a bottle of bubbly; hence why I drink wines like the La Marca Prosecco, Lunetta Prosecco and Roederer Estate Brut more often. But sometimes you just want to drink real Champagne so today we’re tasting an affordable option that blends both my love of Costco and Champagne: The Kirkland Signature Brut, otherwise known as Costco Champagne!

If you’re like many wine lovers who are looking for great wine at great prices, you may have discovered that your local Costco sells wine! I have been Shopping for Wine at Costco for years now and the selections and prices continue to warrant your attention as a value-conscious wine consumer.

While I continue to feature specific wines which I feel represent a great deal of value on The Fermented Fruit, I thought a Costco Wine Price Guide might serve loyal readers well.

*Costco wine prices are current and accurate to the best of our knowledge as of March 21, 2018. I have no affiliation with Costco or Costco wine. Stores visited for this guide: Costco in Arlington, Virginia, Sterling, Virginia and Fort Lauderdale, Fl. If you notice that the price noted for a reviewed wine differs from one published in this guide, that is because the price has since changed and I have updated it in the Costco Wine Price Guide. Don’t forget to check out the Trader Joe’s Wine Section, too. Cheers and happy shopping!
