I made two gallons and one is sparkling. Do I need to do anything differently when bottling the sparkling? I saw one video where the fella added a little sugar to his sparkling wine bottles.

He also said to use a thicker bottle with a champagne stopper instead of a cork. Is this really necessary? TIA

What is the gravity of the sparkling wine? If it's already reached it's terminal gravity it will need to have more fermentables added to carb it up. And yes, it definitely needs a champagne bottle or stopper.
