Maybe. But allow a word for champagne. Encyclopædia Britannica says:
http://www.britannica.com/bcom/eb/article/9/0,5716,22699 1,00.html

EU regulations prohibit the use of the word champagne if the sparkling wine 
does not originate from Champagne, France. My personal favorite is: 
http://www.veuve-clicquot.com/ (This site even checks your legal age 
in French before entering!)

But a good substitute is cava, a champagne-style beverage and an excellent 
value (four times more affordable). My personal favorite is: 
http://www.codorniu.es/. This what I drink most often.
