The holidays are about spending time with friends and family. Toasts will be made, which calls for something bubbly. To make shopping easy, we’ve created a list of sparkling spirits to cover every occasion and every guest.

Just Dance—and Toast

Dom Perignon Vintage 2010 Lady Gaga Limited Edition 

$239.99

(Dom Perignon)
The extraordinary pairing of Dom Perignon and the multi-talented Lady Gaga has created a champagne that pleases the eye as well as the palate. The remarkable 2010 vintage resides in a bottle within a gift box, both featuring a striking iridescent design by Lady Gaga.

Ice, Ice Baby!

Moet & Chandon Ice Imperial Champagne

$69.99
(Moet & Chandon)
(Moet & Chandon)
In addition to its refreshingly crisp flavor and tropical fruit aromas, this Moet & Chandon offering is noteworthy for being the only champagne intended to be served over ice. A blend of chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier, it goes well with fruits and desserts.

Under-the-Radar Bubbles From Germany

Dr. Loosen NV Sekt Extra Dry Sparkling

$27.99

Germany is the leading consumer of sparkling wine, so of course they have their own: sekt. This example from the vineyards of Dr. Loosen pairs well with poultry and fish. Extra-dry and bursting with tiny bubbles, it exhibits a hint of apple and lime.

An Operetta In a Glass

Bocelli Prosecco

$19.99
(Bocelli Family Vineyards)
(Bocelli Family Vineyards)
Famed tenor Andrea Bocelli’s family has owned and operated a vineyard on their estate in Tuscany, Italy, for more than 130 years. Their prosecco, a collaboration with the Lovo family in the Veneto region, is light and refreshing with a hint of peach, making it the perfect choice for lunch, dinner, or “just because.”

‘To the Teetotalers!’

Thomson & Scott Noughty Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Chardonnay

$19.99
(Thomson & Scott)
(Thomson & Scott)

Made using Spanish chardonnay from which the alcohol has been removed, Noughty allows everyone at the party to join in on toasts. With a sweet apple flavor and all of the effervescence of a “real” chardonnay, yet half of the sugar content of other nonalcoholic sparkling wines, Noughty is also perfect for those counting calories.
