You said what I was going to, Moet=:( Mumm=:D
have to say though, I've heard good things about one that is sold in Lidl, perhaps its just an urban legend lol but I have heard from a couple of people that its great for the price.
For £20 you're a bit stuck, but you should be able to get Nicolas Feuillatte for that, which isn't a bad bottle.
If you go for a Cava go for the Freixenet. It's not the best, but is definitely the best you'll find in this country. Anywhere between £3 and £9 a bottle depending on who's got offers on.
I like the cheaper but very decent Jacobs Creek Sparkling. I buy it for my special occasions at £7-8.99 a bottle.
If it would be something to bath in when I win the lottery, it's going to be Piper Heidsieck red label which comes in at around £18-19 a bottle. I see no reason to be spending any more than that when I'm going to be adding Radox as well to calm my nerves while I'm thinking how to spend the dosh.
Jacobs Creek sparkling is acceptable as far as sparkling wine goes, but my all time fave Champagne is Veuve Cliquot. It's about £30.00 a bottle but it's worth it.
Yeah and I thought it'd be really nice but it was only ok - I'd like to try again (of course!) but it wasn't as good as Veuve or even Dom Perignon on that occassion - in my humble opinion!

Funny you should say that, we thought it tasted like white cider! It was quite an old bottle though, and she hadn't stored it in the best of conditions (in the cupboard in the sideboard), so would give it another chance....... given the chance......

Asda currently has it in store at £15, or at least it did on Wednesday...

Scroll down.
They also come in nice packaging if it is for a gift. Saying that I haven't tasted it, I just bought it as gifts for people. It probably tastes rank!

What about the above four? think champagne, and sparkles in there.
Looking at those. Thanks.
If I went into a supermarket and looked I would get a headache from all the confusion, soooooooooooo many drinks on the shelves.
