Sparkling wine is happiness in a glass, and while I truly advocate for sparkling to be drunk on any given day, I could not imagine New Year’s Celebration without this bubbly delight.
Scott Fitzgerald once said a phrase that is completely applicable for this time of the year: "Too much of anything is bad, but too much Champagne is good.” Let's rephrase Mr. Fitzgerald's quote and say, "Too much of anything is bad, but too much Sparkling Wine is good."

Fragrant, light, and floral. These are the adjectives that best describe Prosecco. Thanks to its authentic nature, this is a wine that has been able to reinvent itself from a regional table wine to a status symbol for toasting and celebrations, in Italy and beyond.
Tasting Notes: Aromas of green apples, and golden delicious, demi-sec like taste soft and long-lasting finish. Excellent as an aperitif, ideal with salumi and smoked fish.

It's not every day that you see a rosé of Malbec. Typically one would think of the wines made from this grape to be big lush reds and not a crisp refreshing rosé, let alone a sparkling rosé. Imagine tasting the big fruity aromas of Malbec and applying that to a crisp and dry sparkling rosé... voilà! We have a masterpiece.
Tasting Notes:
With a light ruby color and fine persistent bubbles, the wine is jam-packed with red fruits, ripened strawberries, and raspberries. The wine is perfectly balanced, delicate, and delicious.

Founded in 1757, Henri Abelé is one of the oldest Maisons in Champagne. It is home to an age-old “savoir-faire”; its 250-year-old heritage combined with carefully considered choices, guided by a love of champagne and the very highest standards.
"Lightly floral on the nose, featuring hints of ripe plum, toast, crunchy white peach, and lemon pith, with a zesty, minerally underpinning on the palate. A well-meshed version, offering a firm, clean-cut finish." ~91 Wine Spectator
