mumm makes a napa brut. it's about $15 a bottle. when done blind, over half the people prefer it to one of the expensive mumm frenchies.
for french champagne about as good as it gets, and less than half the price of the heavy promoted stuff, find some thierry thiese wines. this is his catalogue;

pierre peters and Chartogne-Taillet are really fine wines. a bit hard to find. close to being in a league with DOM and KRUG.
