Writer's Summary: One of the best sparkling wines that we've tasted. Comparing this to a champagne, the choice is very clear. Beyond the fact of buying American and the pros associated with that, this compares very well. One of the reviewer's loved the bottle so much she is proudly displaying it in her home with a rose in it.
