Th Pelorus is worth try but at $30ish a bottle I think is priced too high.
The name escapes me now but there is an SA sparkler at $40ish a bottle which is lovely.
FWIW I think Moet is rubbish!

Re: Australian Sparkling Wine, which is best?
I'm not a huge lover of Moet, must be said. If I can't have Veuve (and who can, every day? Not me anyway 
) I think I may as well go for a local one. I'll spend ~$30 if I get them from cellar doors but, as I said above, quite happy with a JC for supping by the telly. (Either way it lasts me a couple of nights, even three, with a decent stopper in it.)

Very true! I should have been more clear - I was referring to "cooking" Moet!

The one I regularly get is less than 20 bucks.... Had a look on the net to try and refresh my memory but couldnt see it. Need a trip to Dan's to find it again... It's always there. So will report back.

Re: Australian Sparkling Wine, which is best?
I was wondering the other day if they sold Wolf Blass red label red wine in Australia (I know it's Australian but wasn't sure if it was just an exported wine?).
But it really is good and nowt like a $5 wine.

Love sparklings ... accidentially now really like red sparkles too.
Padthaway Eliza is a very good white.
Karatta Shiraz is a very good red, or Andrew Garratt neither expensive.

We discovered Clover Hill a Tassie sparkling wine a few years ago, we buy it at Dan Murphy's I think about $40 it's lovely
