Jean Michel Fichet
Fanciful Name: Blanc de Meunier
Varietal: Sparkling
Vintage: 2008
Country of Origin: France
Retail Price: $52.99

Tasting Notes: Overlooking the Taittinger estate, Olivier Michel and his wife produce stellar Champagne, none more unique than this 100% pinot meunier expression. More fruity aromas than you ever expect from Champagne and equally complex on the palate, the grip, length and character of this Champagne will shock you for the price.

Jaume Serra Cristolino Rose Brut

95
Jaume Serra
Fanciful Name: Cristolino
Varietal: Sparkling
Country of Origin: Spain
Appellation: Cava
Retail Price: $9.99

Tasting Notes: Produced by the Champagne method from 60% pinot noir and 40% trepat in the world’s largest sparkling wine region. A bright ruby color leads to a bouquet of violets and not-quite-ripe berries. Bold, rich flavors of cherry and strawberry coat the palate and linger in the lip-smacking, very-dry finish. This wine is surprisingly full bodied and will complement grilled salmon, prawns, paella, or even BBQ-sauced dishes. Try it with fresh fruits, or with brunch. It is also an amazing value!

Cartizze is a vineyard shared by some of the region's top producers, and Villa Sandi knows exactly what to do with these grapes. Elegant, fine bubbles help showcase the quality of the wine. It is an exquisite example of world-class sparkling wine from northern Italy.

Gruet Brut Rosé

Gruet
Varietal: Sparkling
Country of Origin: New Mexico
Retail Price: $19.99

Tasting Notes: If I told you one of the top sparkling wines made in America was made in New Mexico, would you believe me? I didn’t at first either, but once I tried the wines from Gruet I was a believer immediately. Booming with pink and red fruits, this rosé brings you to Champagne if you close your eyes. One of the top wineries in America blows away the competition at the price point they are at and even a couple above it. If you want Methode Champeniose sparkling wines, Gruet should be your next stop.
