Make blue-collar trash champagne from cheap wine.

Apparently to qualify to be actual champagne the drink has to be made from grapes from a specific region of France and thus has a controlled price making it the perceived drink of the wealthy.
Well that's all changed, since now any wine can be turned into a champagne-esque bubbly extravaganza with nothing more than a common Sodastream drinks carbonator.
The Sodastream works by injecting carbon dioxide into a drink through a diffuser, and as the pressure in the bottle increases, more carbon dioxide gets absorbed into the liquid.
The Sodastream units are designed to be used with water, and then have flavour syrups added afterwards. But in this case we are carbonating white wine. It's worth noting that red wine seems to go a bit nuclear when carbonated, so probably best approached with extreme caution. I think the high tannin content probably acts as nucleation surfaces and makes it less stable when carbonated.
