Two Sparkling wines made by the same method as Champagne just from different parts of the world but tasting every bit as good. Both of these sparkling wines are excellent substitutes for Champagne and would make a super gift for half the price. Maria Casanovas CavaPenedes, Spain1 x 75cl We love this Cava so much! Made from exclusively  from white grapes it is a glass of finesse. Fresh, crisp and with a lovely mouthfeel and richness. Maria Casanovas is a family owned winery established in 1984 and their 9 hectare site is certified Organic.
