Popping a cork on a bottle of bubbly is a New Year's Eve Tradition, make sure you're opening something you actually want to drink!

Russ recommends an authentic champagne like Veuve Clicquot. Champagnes are made only in the French region by the same name and, Russ says, have a yeasty character that's a bit more in-depth than most sparkling wines. Sparkling wines are the bubbly alternatives to champagne, made around the world.Russ recommends something like an Italian Prosecco. Champagne, he says, does fermentation in the bottle, whereas Prosecco has CO2 injected into the wine.
All of his recommendations can be purchased in-store and online. The website includes a host of recipes and party planning tips too. You can even determine how many bottles you'll need for your celebration. In-store, the Chairman's selection section, with its descriptive tags, can take out the guesswork as well. The section has quality wines that are taste-tested before they're bought and they are deeply discounted.
For party hosts looking to save, there's the Fill-a-Tote program. Choose six bottles of qualifying wines and you'll save $14 and get a free tote. And, if you're having a party for one or want a cute hostess gift, Fine Wine & Good Spirits offers smaller sized bottles of sparkling wine.
