A friend gave me a bottle of cava type rose from Marks and Spencer for Christmas. It was devine! I see they have it in again for Valentines day - costs about £7 I think and would really add some sparkle and colour to your party - why not treat yourself to a pink outfit to match!!

I think you should pay a visit to tesco where they have some excellent champagne at the moment and some are half price so only costing £13 a bottle.. Or if you dont want to pay this much a favourite of mine is vintage codorniu available at most wine shops its 12% and cost about £10 but is often on offerm it comes in rose or white..

Answer from Jonathan Ray Guru
I couldn’t agree more about cava. We are clearly in a minority, though, for cava comprises some 40% of all sparkling-wine retail sales in the UK, with worldwide sales of some 225 million bottles. As for champagne, the best stuff is expensive but it is still worth shopping around. Majestic, for example, currently has amazing deals with some brands at half price.
But in between cava and champagne there are some lovely, well-priced, méthode traditionelle sparklers to be found, of which my current favourites include: Lindauer Brut NV, 12%vol, New Zealand (£7.99; widely available); Mumm Cuvée Napa Rosé, 12.5%vol, California (£11.99; Majestic, Sainsbury’s); 2002 Graham Beck Brut Blanc de Blancs, 12%vol, South Africa (£12.49; Bibendum 020 7449 4120).
