Transport from France to Germany is a lot cheaper than from France to USA. But I don’t know why Italian prosecco is so much cheaper. Same issue with bordeaux vs. (say) tuscan.
@blackris@barsoap in the UK you can get an ok prosecco for a tenner so that’s what basic beaches drink here (happy to claim that title). My parents enjoy a cava. There is a growing “English Sparkling Wine” market as climate change moves the fizz-friendly region northwards into southern England but that stuff is £££
True. But decent bottles of prosecco start at like $8, and decent champagne starts at like $40.
Is that so? A good champagne is 20-30 Euros in Germany

Of course it does it’s French and overpriced. Buy Rotkäppchen.
Meh. Freixenet is the way to go. But I am on your side with champagne being overpriced. Same shit, fancy name.
Geez guys, there’s good Sekt, so please do not promote that awful and not even cheap stuff
