agree  Joel Schaefer: Sparkling wine is not enough, Prosecco must be specified - it's both a DOC (appellation) and the name of the grape variety used to make it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosecco

agree  Ford Prefect: Not "sparkling wine", that is too generic for Prosecco, which is a grape variety. "Sparkling wine" as gloss might be necessary.
