# Sparkling Wine Cocktails From Mumm Napa *By James Hills, mantripping.com — Updated December 2021* Sparkling wine as a category continues to impress me with far more than the standard "party Champagne" on offer today. For generations bubbly wine has been celebrated in various formats but we are truly in the midst of a renaissance with a wide variety of creations available as well as a  resurgence in sparkling wine cocktails as well. Mumm Napa sent over some bottles for us as well as these recipes to share. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we did ! While the core of the sparkling wine market is clearly "Champagne" style wines that are mainly blending chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier, the space is rapidly evolving to include not just prosseco and cava but also other varietals that can become sparkling too. We are also starting to see an increase in sparkling Rose that are more than just "for the girls". For some guys who aren't as experienced in what to look for this can be confusing since in "the old days" rose would always be featured in a pink bottle with an often overly pink hue to the wine. Today though for example, Mumm Napa offers the NV Cuvee M featuring 48% Chardonnay, 43% Pinot Noir, 6% Pinot Gris, & 3% Pinot Meunier and a more peachy color that isn't quote a rose but is distinctly not your everyday champagne-style wine either. With 3% residual sugar it is going to be relatively sweet as well. However, they also offer a Brut Sparkling Rose with 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay and only 1.16% residual sugars resulting in a rather dry wine ... despite the reputation of Rose wines being sweeter. This is just some of the fun that you can have exploring wines but also exploring pairing options as well and don't worry about spending a ton of money. The three bottles that M[umm Napa](https://www.mummnapa.com/) sent me are all under $30 and available in most stores where sparkling wines are sold. ## Mumm Napa Raspberry Rosé Fizz - 4 parts **Mumm Napa Brut Rosé** - 2 parts Lime juice or Limeade - 1 part Gin or Vodka - Fresh Raspberries *Method:* Muddle ~12 raspberries in a cocktail shaker.
