Wines for New Year's Eve entertaining
A reader asks how much champagne to buy and which affordable and better options exist. Guidance suggests 0.33 to 0.5 bottles per person, six glasses per 26 ounce bottle, with extra unopened bottles returnable if not chilled. Recommends Almaden, Paul Masson, Christian Brothers from California as best value under six dollars, notes NY state champagnes are inferior for price, and advises cheap sparkler for punch. Also covers serving temp around 45 to 50 degrees and warns against adding ice. If budget allows, lists Bollinger Vieilles Vignes, Cristal Louis Roederer, Fleur de Champagne Perrier Jouet, Schramsberg Blanc de Noirs or Cuvee Gamay.
