7 Sparkling Wines for $50 or Less

We’re in the final stretch of the holiday season, which means it’s time to stock up on all the bubbles your refrigerator and wine rack can handle. 

And, as it’s the season for gifting, we know everyone is mindful of their wallet. Below, we rounded up seven sparklers from the 2017 archives, all perfect for all the celebratory occasions—and all for the tune of $50 or less. 

“How can you not back up the truck on a long-aged sparkler like this at this price?”

“ Full-bodied, round and almost rich on the palate but also pure, mineral and seriously structured, this is an impressive, highly elegant and fresh Austrian Sekt.”

“Pointed and focused, this is another beauty, but don't think it's a simple walk-around sparkler. It's quite a bargain, though.”

“This beautiful sparkling wine shows a unique aromatic profile with spicy notes of spearmint and fresh oregano leaf that pop to the top.” 

“Intense and vinous on the palate, this is a round and fruity but also pure, dry and salty crémant.”

“The NV Blanc de Blancs has a superb bouquet: vibrant and quite stony with plenty of dew-speckled Granny Smith apples.”

“The wine's energy activates all your tastebuds.”
