A short list of bubbles we’ll be sipping this season.
Ruffino Lumina Prosecco DOC
A quintessential prosecco to get the evening started. Bright, floral and fruity — best served well chilled with canapés, and an ideal base for a spritz.
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2015 Special Edition
When assembled, three different boxes reveal the image of a Jean-Michel Basquiat painting. This 2015 vintage champagne assemblage is toasty, minerally and ripe with stone fruit.
Krug Grand Cuvée 170 Edition Brut Champagne
Along with an exquisitely fine mousse, this blend of 195 wines from 12 vintages delivers notes of toasted nuts, citrus and honey.
Stratus Field Blend Ancestral Sparkling Wine
This unusual and charming blend of Riesling, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes has a delicate fizz, due to the ancient technique of completing fermentation in the bottle.
Sperling Speritz Pet Nat
The sparkling darling of the natural wine movement (that sediment in the bottle is supposed to be there!), pétillant naturel is made using the ancestral method. The B.C. blend is full of pear, peach and mineral notes.
Gloria Ferrer Blanc de Blancs
Spaniards making sparkling wine in California turn out noteworthy 100-percent Chardonnay brut with Granny Smith apple acidity, rich texture and lush fruit.
Blue Mountain Gold Label Sparkling Brut
B.C.’s favourite bubbly is a sparkling wine made in the méthode traditionnelle from hand-harvested Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grown on a family-owned estate.
