From Prosecco to Champagne, Huon Hooke explores seven sparkling wines that showcase the great range of styles and price points available in Australia. Starting with Italian and Australian prosecco, then heading to Tasmania for both non-vintage and vintage sparkling wines, Huon compares how each style stacks up, finishing with a unique late-disgorged Australian sparkling and two Champagnes.

Whether you’re after a festive prosecco, a refined Tasmanian sparkling, a rare late-disgorged wine, or a prestige Champagne, this lineup will help you choose the perfect bottle for any celebration.
