Although, we love Champagne (oh so much!), it certainly isn’t the only choice when it comes to refreshing and delicious bubbly goodness that sings out of the glass.

It’s important to know that sparkling wines aren’t second to Champagne. Au contraire! For the third year in the row, Ferrari Trento is the Official Sparkling wine of Emmy Award Season. And many on this list are also award winners. Montes Sparkling Angel earned 92 points from wine critic James Suckling. While Gloria Ferrer Blanc de Blancs scored 91 points with Wine Enthusiast. Sparkling wine also costs a whole lot less than Champagne. For the price of an average bottle of Champagne, you can enjoy premium sparkling wine.

With this list of affordable, sustainable, organic, and biodynamic bubbly, don’t save opening a bottle only for special occasions. Anytime you feel like a refreshing pick-me-up, pop the cork on a bottle of Prosecco, Cava, Metodo Classico, Crémant, Rosé, or Espumante.

A favorite for spritzers, (recipes below!) you can also add a few drops of quality liqueur in sparkling wine for a different drink experience. KOVAL’s organic Jasmine and Orange Blossom add a delicate floral essence to sparkling wine.

Of course, as with Champagne, preference is all about bubble size and sugar levels. Fine tune your palate for the effervesce you prefer and what level of sweetness makes you want to chill and serve a bottle of sparkling wine right now.

To get the party started, peruse this list of 51 sparkling wines all made with sustainable, organic, or biodynamic grapes ( in no particular order) from all over the world at different price points that will please both your palate and your budget.
