Choosing the Best Bubbly

Champagne popping corkNew Year’s Eve is just two days away, and there are many questions you might still need to answer: “Where am I going?” “Who am I going with?” “What are my resolutions for next year?” High on the list of a wine enthusiast’s questions, however, will be: “Which champagne will I pop the cork off of before midnight?”

Your answer to this question will depend on a few factors. Are you buying one bottle for an intimate evening or several bottles for a larger party? Are you more concerned with affordability, or are you looking to impress others with your selection of a fine, pricey bottle?

Below are a handful of links to help you try and solve this conundrum. Work quickly, though—the year is almost over!

  • The 2010 Champagne Information Bureau Tasting Results — these assessments are all from the March 2010 event, so keep in mind that, while a comprehensive list, not all of these bottles may still be available.
  • Consumer Search — Aggregated expert reviews of champagne, spotlighting the five best reviewed bottles of the year.
  • Jiles Halling — a former native of the French wine region of Champagne offers his recommendation for the best bottle produced there this year.
