Wine sparkling but not supposed to be

gonker · 2009-10-31 23:24:09

I opened a bottle of wine tonight to drink watching the xfactor..cheapy bottle of zona chenin chardonnay bought in sainsburys, and its sparkling, really fizzy and actually very nice to drink. Just wondering if its ok to drink I dont think its actually supposed to be sparkling?

Sounds like a bit of yeast stayed or found it's way in to the bottle or they bottled the wrong thing . If it tastes okay then it should be fine to drink.
