prosecco nino franco rustico

NV Nino Franco

"The golden color and peach nectar scent predict this to be rich, but a potent, nutty savor keeps it balanced. It finishes, clean, tight and grippy. A mouthwatering aperitif."

nv-gruet-blanc-de-noirs-new-mexico-sparkling-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

NV Gruet

Elegant and focused, with creamy vanilla and apple aromas and rich yet crisp flavors of baked pear and cinnamon bread. Drink now through 2014.

nv-scharffenberger-brut-mendocino-california-sparkling-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

NV Scharffenberger

Bright aromas of green apple and lime lead to vibrant, layered flavors of citrus, anise and creamy vanilla.

NV Berlucchi

"This fresh, creamy Chardonnay-based sparkler is making waves thanks to its crisp acidity and full-bodied mouthfeel. The balance is spot-on, with delicate aromas of apricot, baked bread and sweet citrus that are backed by smooth and persistent perlage."

brut roederer estate nv

NV Roederer Estate

"Sleek and impeccably focused and balanced, with floral apple, cinnamon and anise aromas and crisp yet supple lemon tart, cherry and spicy hazelnut flavors."

cava gramona gran cuvee 2008

2008 Gramona

"This is basically the equivalent of a grower sparkling wine in Spain. A low dosage is based on a solera system going back to 1870! Exhibits crisp, minerally notes intermixed with hints of orange rind, brioche and lemon zest, light to medium body, and a chalky character. Cavas have come of age and are better than ever, and this impressive, boutique version is well worth trying. It should provide pleasure for several years."

NV Mumm Napa

"Crisp and elegantly styled, with floral apple and yeasty spice aromas that lead to layered flavors of baked pear, citrus and creamy vanilla."

rose scharffenberger brut

NV Scharffenberger

"Sleek, with pinpoint focus, this offers raspberry and butter cookie aromas, with crisp, elegant citrus and cherry flavors marked by ginger and spice."

franck peillot montagnieu brut nv

NV Franck Peillot

"Lemon, fresh apple, yellow plum, freshly milled grain, musky narcissus, and intimations of maritime breeze in the nose lead to a palate subtly creamy yet bright; generously juicy with apple and lemon. This finishes with a twang of lees, mineral, and citrus zest. The quality of mousse, incidentally, is reasonably fine. In short, you won’t find many more interesting non-Champagne sparklers than this, not to mention its offering excellent value."

nv gosset brut excellence champagne france sparkling wine 750ml thumb

NV Gosset

The NV Gosset Brut Excellence Champagne is a broad Champagne, featuring nice definition and flavors of pear pastry, black licorice and smoke on a delicately textured, creamy mousse. Shows fine length, with a lingering ginger note.

champagne louis roederer brut premier nv

NV Louis Roederer

"Firm and finely meshed, with hints of passion fruit and pineapple mixing with poached apple, almond pastry and fleur de sel. Mouthwatering and lightly smoky on the lingering, refined finish. Drink now through 2017."

NV Alain Thienot

"An exotic sparkler, displaying rich caramelized smoke and brioche notes, balanced with citrusy acidity and flavors of ripe apple, candied pineapple, lemon meringue and crystallized honey. Mouthwatering finish."

champagne vazart coquart brut reserve nv

NV Vazart Coquet

"Light yellow. Exotic, lees-accented aromas of papaya, apricot and melon, with pungent floral and spice qualities. Fruity and round, offering lemon-accented pit and tropical fruit flavors and a dusty, spicy quality on the back half. Finishes smooth, with lingering suggestions of chamomile and honeysuckle. This exotic Champagne reminded me of viognier!"

champagne ployez-jacquemart-extra-quality-brut-nv

NV Ployez Jacquemart

"Light yellow. Fragrant aromas of orange zest, white pepper, minerals and lees. Spicy and incisive on the palate, offering juicy citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a subtle note of honeysuckle. The mineral quality comes back strong on the finish, which is dry, focused and persistent. I like this Champagne's tension."

nv-diebolt-vallois-brut-balnc-de-blanc-champagne-france-sparkling-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

NV Diebolt-Vallois

Pale gold. Aromas of pear, lemon curd, anise and minerals, with a subtle floral quality in the background. Juicy and precise, with very good depth to its tangy orchard fruit and citrus zest flavors. Shows good energy and focus on the finish, which echoes the citrus note. I'd serve this Champagne by itself, or maybe with straightforward shellfish dishes.

champagne camille saves carte blanche brut nv

NV Camille Saves

"Light yellow. Pungent aromas of redcurrant, peach pit and lemon zest, with a floral topnote. Juicy and broad, with supple texture and powerful red berry and citrus pith qualities. Really shows its pinot side. Finishes long and spicy, with impressive clarity and grip"

Barnaut Brut Rose Champagne

NV Barnaut

Dark pink. Powerful scents of redcurrant, blood orange and toasty lees, with a sexy floral overtone. Pliant red fruit and citrus flavors pack a serious punch and show unlikely vivacity, with a slow-building smoky quality adding seriousness. Finishes with solid grip and echoes of red fruit and smoky minerality.

nv-pierre-moncuit-brut-blanc-de-blanc-champagne-france-sparkling-wine-750ml-thumb.jpg

NV Pierre Moncuit

Pale gold. Intense, mineral-accented aromas of lemon curd, orange peel, pear and quinine, with a suave undertone of smoky minerals. Toasty and spicy on entry, then more tangy in the middle, with very good depth and clarity to its citrus and orchard fruit flavors. The floral quality comes back on the finish, which lingers with impressive tenacity and spiciness.

champagne charles heidsieck brut rose reserve nv

NV Charles Heidsieck

"Lovely texture and an airy mousse here, with bright, mouthwatering acidity and flavors of dried cherry, almond biscotti and dried apricot. Features a stony, mineral-tinged finish."

nv-bollinger-special-cuvee-brut-champagne-france-750ml-thumb.jpg

NV Bollinger

The NV Bollinger Special Cuvee is a rich, smoky Champagne, with hints of marzipan and fennel seed accenting honeyed malt, bread dough, baked apple and gingersnap flavors. It's all focused by intense acidity, which meshes beautifully into the layers of flavor and refined texture, with a lingering finish. Drink now through 2021.
