What is "bubbly"?

Bubbly wine, also known as sparkling wine or champagne, is a type of wine that is carbonated, resulting in a fizzy and effervescent drink. The carbonation is achieved through a secondary fermentation process, which can be done in the bottle (méthode champenoise) or in a large tank (Charmat method). Bubbly wine is made from several grape varieties, including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, and can be produced in different regions around the world. The taste and aroma of bubbly wine can vary depending on the production method and region, but it often includes notes of citrus, apple, and toast. Bubbly wine is often associated with celebrations and special occasions, and is a popular choice for toasting. It pairs well with a variety of foods, including seafood, cheese, and desserts. The most famous type of bubbly wine is Champagne, which is produced exclusively in the Champagne region of France.
