Tiny bubbles, in the wine...

"Champagne, if you are seeking the truth, is better than a lie detector. It encourages a man to be expansive, even reckless, while lie detectors are only a challenge to tell lies successfully." -- Graham Greene

New Year's Eve is almost upon us and what better way to ring in 2009 than with a bit of bubbly! Try these sparkling delights:

Bollinger Champagne Special Cuvee
This great non-vintage Champagne has all the ripe fruit and toasty notes you would expect from a 94 point wine.

Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve
This one is a hit! Fruit and citrus highlight this tasty Champagne. Drinks with class.

Cinzano Asti
I'm not the biggest fan of Spumante, too sweet for my taste, but this one has a muted sweetness and fresh fruit that shine through.

Gloria Ferrer Blanc de Noirs
Frothy and mouth watering; drinks with ease!

Henriot Souverain Brut Champagne
This is a fancy Champagne with rich, full flavors and an elegant finish.

Korbel Champagne Brut
Made in the traditional Methode Champonoise, this California brut is here to please; drinks dry yet soft.

Moet & Chandon White Star
Creamy and soft fruit flavors abound in this fine Champagne. Great for French 75!

Mumm Napa Brut Prestige
This gold medal winner is a winner in my book. Drinks fast and easy!

Toques et Clochers Cremant, 1998 (Magnum)
Fantastic Frech sparkling wine comes on with a creamy mouth-feel and fine bubbles.

Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label
Round, ripe, and ready to drink with approachable citrus notes.

Zefiro Prosecco
truly a tasy Italian, this Prosecco brings a delicate palate up to speed with fine touches of peach. Try it by itself or with an ounce of peach puree for every three ounces of Prosecco.

May your new year be filled with God's grace, joy, and blessing!

Cheers!
