Question

Can you recommend a good celebratory wine ?

Answer 1

I think its called Chapel Hill - English Sparkling Wine.  As good as many champagnes and about £15 in Sainsburys

Answer 2

If its a celebration you're after, then you definitely need a little bubbly!

Here's the problem, many people don't like the taste because most champagnes are too dry. Keep in mind that you can order a double brute, etc. which changes the sweetness level. However, a unique, and truly different taste experience is "Sparkling Burgandy." It's a delicious red bubbly sevred ice cold, reasonably priced and enjoyed by everyone I've served it to. There are several different brands to choose from. Take your pick.

Answer 3

Pinot Meunier (name of the grape) and there are only 3 vintners that produce it...the 2 easiest to find will be River Road or Chandon.

This wine is excellent!

You will be very pleased!

Answer 4

Here's my recommendations:

Champagne: Dom Perignon, any vintage.  Recently Cristal has become very popular, but I'm afraid I must disagree with my peers.  It is a nice bottle, and sure, it's expensive, but there is nothing in the world like a good bottle of Dom.

White: Any Canadian "Late Autumn Riesling".  A beautiful sweetish (Sugar Code 3) white wine that is great for celebrations.  This is not something you drink with dinner ... it has its own purpose.

Red: My favourite: Italian Barolo.  Barolo is often called "the king of wines and the wine of kings" (coined by King Louis XIV of France).  An inexpensive Barolo is $30, a good Barolo is $120.  Believe me ... this is no ordinary wine.  Barolo rests on your palate like it's giving you a massage.  It is from the Nebbiolo grape, grown in the Piedmont Region of Italy.  It's a fine choice.

Whatever it is you're celebrating, congratulations!

Answer 5

depend on your taste I prefer a sweet sparkling wine like asti spumanti,asti moscato

Answer 6

not Merlot

Answer 7

Robert Mondavi Pinot Noir!  It tastes really good and smooth. Even a non wine drinker will like it.  

Answer 8

What are you celebrating.  A baptism or a 12th birthday would not be a celebration where wine would be served.

A Wedding or wedding anniversary would.

For any celebration of any kind where alcholol is legal, Champagne is always the wine of choice.
