Best Answer

There's not a specific translation for 'sparkling wine' in Portuguese, though Portugal has some sparkling wines. The best approach for 'sparkling wine' in Portuguese may be 'Vinho gasoso' (Viño gasoso), meaning 'gaseous wine'. I guess the most enjoyed is 'Vinho Verde' (Viño Verde, Green Wine). The sparkling is called 'pico' ('pike') or 'agulha' (agugla, 'gl' like in the Italian word 'consiGLieri', meaning 'needle').
