The classic example of a sparkling wine is Champagne, but this wine is exclusively produced in the Champagne region of France and many sparkling wines are produced in other countries and regions, such as Espumante in Portugal, Cava in Spain, Franciacorta, Trento, Oltrepò Pavese Metodo Classico and Asti in Italy ( the generic Italian term for sparkling wine being spumante ) and Cap Classique in South Africa.

And unlike Cava, which is produced solely in northern climates, Espumante is not only produced in the northern wet region of Vinho Verde, but also throughout Portugal all the way to the southern region of the Alentejo, known for its extreme temperatures and arid climate.

While Spain has one regulating body, DOC Cava, spread across several different political regions, quality Espumante is produced solely in DOC Bairrada, located just south of Vinho Verde.

Top quality Espumantes can be found in Bairrada region and in Távora-Varosa sub region – Murganheira is a great example of high quality Espumante from this region.

In order for a wine to be certified as a quality Espumante from DOC Bairrada, it must be made in the traditional Champagne ( indicating the year of harvest ) and stamped with the VEQPRD ( Vinho Espumante de Qualidade Produzido em Região Determinada ) certification.

Furthermore, there are two special designations connected to a grape variety and a wine style, Vinho Verde Alvarinho and Vinho Verde Alvarinho Espumante.
