I got Cupcake Proseco. It seems to have good ratings, we'll see.

Indeed.

Champagne is a sparkling wine. Not all sparkling wine is Champagne.

I just picked up a bottle of Korbel Brut..... Mistake? or o.k.?

Just alright. Perfectly drinkable, but not going to impress anyone. Snobs will look down their noses.

For $25ish, my hands-down favorites are Scharmsberg & Mumm Napa.

Good choices. Also Roederer (the one from Anderson Valley in Mendocino, not the one in France).

I just picked up an Argyle today for $26. Sparkling from the Willamette Valley, OR. 55% chardonnay / 45% pinot noir. Looking forward to trying it out.

La Marca Prosecco is DELICIOUS

Gruet is a nice choice, but I generally find it well under the $30 price point.

I also like the Domaine Carneros sparking wines.

Total wine has a 9$ cava which I really like. I was skeptical at first but it was highly rated. It's Rondel.

J has a good sparkling for around $25.

Rodman's recommended this one to me and I thought it was very nice.

For $30, you can get an excellent sparkling wine! You need to define what you're tastes are - sweet, not so sweet, dry. I routinely drink sparkling wines and am currently on a rose/red jag. LOVE them. Go to some place like Total Wine/Beverage and you'll have an excellent range of choice and someone to help you.

Proscecco.

Any good brand of champagne in the $30 range?
