Tiny bubbles that swell up in your mouth and linger for quite a while are a feature of this sparkling Italian wine. The sweet smell of honey gives way for fruity notes of gala apples and ripe pears on the plate, which were enhanced by the slight boost of sweetness.

A lovely dry Cava (Spanish bubbles) with citrus notes and green apple flavours, this is one great wine at a bargain price. Using a blend of the indigenous Spanish white grapes which work harmoniously like Champagne's Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Clean and refreshing, the perfect aperitif.

A nice change from Aussie bubbles, this German brut has a surprisingly smooth and creamy taste for the uninitiated, with fizzing fruit flavours and a delicious lingering finish. Prost!

A fun sparkling wine blend made from grapes from all over Southern Australia. Delicious citrus fruit flavours making it the perfect wine to bring out with party nibbles. Crisp, clean and bubbly with some Granny Smith apple crunchiness Enjoy it as a starter with a bowl of salty cashew nuts

With flavours that run from finely sliced nectarine to a tickle of mandarin and back to a hint of musk, the Jacob's Creek prosecco is equipped to take on the chill and sweetness of gelato. It has rose petal texture and grapefruit acidity, which makes drinking brilliantly fresh but dangerously easy.

A real sophisticated offering from the team at De Bortoli. It's a Chardonnay-driven bubbly that's delicate with lemon and apple flavours delivering persistence with a fine acid structure. Extended lees contact creatures a rich texture and adds yeasty complexity.

As close as you get to genuine Châteauneuf power – and with a Gold medal pedigree too, winning Gold for the last eight vintages. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre are the three mainstays of this champion that boasts layers of velvety ripe black fruit, liquorice and spicy complexity. It's from the only co-operative cellar in Châteauneuf du Pape, the top appellation of the southern Rhône, and is owned and run by local growers. The grapes are from vineyards that abut the famous name appellation and share the same stone strewn soil that promotes superb ripeness and richness of fruit. The vines are old and gnarled, producing few grapes but with rare concentration of flavour. It's made by Châteauneuf winemaker Thierry Ferlay ... and it's very, very good!
