New Year's Eve Champagne Suggestions From our Members
I asked what champagne (or sparkling wine) people were drinking for New Year's Eve and below is what some of you said. Thanks for the responses.
Sharon F said: "Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is my champagne of choice. Its very easy to drink, some can be quite dry and harsh IMO."

Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label about $30 a bottle
Kate M said: "Nearby in Plymouth, CA in the Amador Wine country there is a winery named Karmere. They make an Almond Champagne that is absoluely amazing."

Karmere Almond Sparking Wine about $14 a bottle
Jill O said: "My pap always gave us grandkids a sip of Martini & Rossi Asti on holidays, and this New Years Eve will be the 5th anniversary of his passing so we'll be toasting it in his honor."
Kim P said: "I just love love love Martini and Rossi Asti Spumante."

Martini and Rosi Asti Spumante about $12 a bottle
Erika L said: "Gloria Ferrer from the Carneros district of Sonoma. Love the Royal Cuvee, but the brut is outstanding, too."

Gloria Ferrer Royal Cuvee about $32 a bottle
Ledaliz C said: "For New Year's Eve, I already have a Clicquot Rosé in my fridge. Chilling..."

Veuve Cliquot Rose about $55 a bottle
Jennifer A said, "Yes our favorite is called Verdi. It's about $4 or $5 and it's the greatest ever."

Verde Spumante about $5 a bottle
And here is my favorite sparkling wine -- NV Vin Du Bugey-Cerdon “La Cueille,” a deep pink sparkling wine with about as much alcohol as a typical beer. It's fruity (but not too fruity), light, and delicious!

NV Vin Du Bugey-Cerdon “La Cueille” about $20 a bottle
