I have a friend with whom we like to make a variety of bets. Once they argued whether it is possible to find sparkling wine that costs less than 500 rubles, and at the same time is really tasty and of high quality. The victory remained with me, and at the same time I made a list of fine and inexpensive wines.
“Myskhako”
I started my “revision” from a nearby store and bought several bottles of sparkling wines in the right price range. Basically, the drinks really turned out to be too sour and not of particularly high quality, but Myskhako stood out among them – pink sparkling wine worth about 300 rubles.
At first I didn’t even believe that it was so cheap. Thought I made a mistake with the bottle.
Excellent clean aroma, balanced taste with raspberry notes – the drink turned out to be perfect in all respects.
“Derbent”
My wife loves brut very much, so I decided to look for analogues of her favorite brands.
Quite quickly, I came across Derbentskoe, a white brut champagne that costs about 300 rubles.
It turned out to be a clear wine with a bright and pleasant refreshing taste, which my wife appreciated. The pink brut of the same brand is also quite good, but we agreed that the white is better.
ZB Wine Moscato
In one online store, I bought ZB Wine Moscato worth about 450 rubles. If you look, you can find this drink and cheaper.
I took pink sparkling, so I can’t speak for the entire range of the company, but I really liked what I tried.
The aroma of the wine is rich, the taste is clean, moderately sweet and light, with a short aftertaste. Grape varieties used in the manufacture of the drink: Hamburg Muscat and Amber Muscat.
“Chateau Taman Reserve”
Extra brut costs about 500 rubles. It has a bright classic taste with berry notes, and the wife also distinguished light citrus fruits.
The grape varieties used in the production of the drink are Chardonnay, Riesling and Pinot Blanc.
Drinking wine is easy and pleasant. The next morning the head is clear, even if you drink a lot. I know that people take this wine for the holidays and are satisfied. We will definitely be buying more too.
“Derbent”
I prefer rosé wines, so I tested them more than others. So the pink sweet “Derbent” turned out to be to my liking and even exceeded my expectations.
I bought it for 320 rubles, but the price may vary slightly up or even down.
“Derbent” is produced by the traditional method from red and white grape varieties. This sparkling wine is a wonderful aperitif with a mild flavor with hints of grapefruit.
