- A. France's Champagne

- C. Italy's Prosecco

Critical Answer & Explanation
Answer: B. Spain's Cava Explanation: Cava is Spain's jewel, democratizing the prestige of Champagne at a more affordable price point. It undergoes the meticulous Traditional Method (secondary fermentation in the bottle), gaining subtle notes of Apple, Pear (Green fruit), and light brioche. Meanwhile, Fortified Wines are those to which a spirit like brandy is added during or after fermentation, raising the alcohol content to 15-22%.

Remember that Cava uses the bottle (Traditional Method), while Prosecco uses a large pressure tank (Tank Method). [Tip]: In the exam, if you see 'Secondary fermentation in the bottle' or 'Spain' combined with sparkling wine, look for Cava.
