How many mL of sparkling mineral water should I add to wine to make it adequately sparkling like champagne/bubbly?
-
You can mix carbonated water and wine - that's called Weinschorle in German
Yay new (german compound) word

Schorle is usually made half and half. You can also go for 1/3 if you have really sparkly water.

Guess schlorle means something awful
/jkWhy do you do it? To have a less strong beverage?

Is there actually any issue with carbonating non-pure-water stuff with a SodaStream or do they just say that to increase their own mix sales?
My understanding is many of the ones that are only rated for water have additional nooks and crannies where the liquid you are carbonating can get trapped, yielding nastiness over time.

As far as I know, yes.
In some regions of Germany, beer wasn't traditionally as common as you might expect. By watering down wine, you get a beverage with a similar alcohol content like beer which you can drink in similar contexts - for example, it's not a great idea to drink undiluted wine when you're sitting outside on a hot summer day

Ah, you mean a Deutschkompoundenwordkopf.

The only truly accurate answer is: enough.

Carbonation adds bubbles. The bubbles in water dissipate very quickly, whereas bubbles in other drinks with sugars or other compounds tend to have a bit more stability in the bubbles (think about how long the foam takes to settle from a beer being poured).
So when you force carbonate in a bottle, the bubbles tend to rise to the top, and when the pressure is released, will spray out it every direction, causing a huge mess.
It can be managed by being very slow and methodical at adding pressure, and, more importantly, by being slow and methodical and slowly releasing the pressure. But you have to be ready for it to make a mess.

Why would you ask this rather than adding it to wine yourself to see what amount you found satisfying?

32.46 ml of soda for each 154.6ml of wine any more and the drink is ruined and you have to throw out the whole bottle. Source and bartender

You just don't mix water in wine for what I know. Why on earth would you try to do that?
Bullify it in a SodaStream instead (put a little less wine than you usually put water in the bottle).
i actually kinda like mixing wine and water, gives a light grapy drink

You can get a DrinkMate which can carbonate anything, no need to dilute. It has a built in pressure release, and is easily cleanable by design.
Don't use a sodastream, it's not meant for anything but water. It'd make a mess and be very hard to clean.

Why so quick to assume I havent been doing that in parallel?
