Veuve Clicquot Non-Vintage Brut Champagne, Champagne A.C., France: This classic, well-known Champagne is a traditional blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes. Lime zest, green apple and freshly baked bread aromas on the nose, with a terrific persistence of bubbles on the palate. Try the ultra-shabby chic combo here between French Champagne and a bucket of KFC chicken. Why wait for New Year’s or a wedding before you pop open bubbly when it’s so tasty? The bonus is that it’s just about the best partner for fried food on the planet: it’s mouth-watering acidity and bubbles wash away the fat, making you want more of course. 563338 12% D 750 mL $79.95 Score: 92/100.

Bollinger Special Cuvée Brut Champagne, Champagne A.C., France: Toasty, complex fresh - no wonder Mr Bond loved this one before the says of paid product placement in movies. Great structure and balance, a silver line of acidity weaves together with the fresh white tree fruit notes baked bread with baking spices. Try this with oysters or clams. Drink: 2014-2020. 384529 12% XD 750 mL $73.95 Score: 93/100. June 13, 2015 Top Rated Sparkling Wine. Gorgeous Gift Wine Full Review
