Cook's California Champagne Strawberry Mimosa California Sparkling White Wine

Price is where this one makes its case: among the sparkling wines we track, very few come cheaper. It comes from California, and the product name marks it as a strawberry mimosa, a flavored sparkling wine.

Who bottles it is the part we have not been able to confirm. When we checked in September 2026, $9.99 was the least we saw for it at any store.

The maker is on record after all: this is a Cook's California Champagne product, and the producer's own listing names it a Strawberry Mimosa, a sparkling wine finished with strawberry flavoring at 10 percent alcohol. The producer's own tasting description calls out "notes of luscious, ripe red berries, juicy orange, green apple, and toasted brioche," the maker's words, describing a flavored, semi-sweet style rather than a traditional dry sparkling wine. Cook's has carried the Champagne name since 1859, when founder Isaac Cook built what the producer calls the first American sparkling wine brand to earn national recognition; the brand states it remains one of the few American producers still legally permitted to use that name today, under a grandfathered exemption.

Only 2 shoppers have weighed in. Their average is 5 out of five. In those same September 2026 checks, the top price we recorded was $14.99.

Our call: choose it knowingly, as the flavored, semi-sweet mimosa-in-a-bottle the producer describes, not as a traditional dry sparkler; for brunch duty at this price that is exactly the job. Pass if the word Champagne on the label is why you reached; the name rides an old American labeling allowance, and the style inside is strawberry first.
