Trendy Sparkling Wines to Get Your Holiday Parties Started Right

Whether you prefer a style that’s underrated, brand-new or simply a bargain, there’s something here to make the choice an easy one.

A bold bubbly is never a bad way to get the holiday party started. These choices reflect what’s trending in sparkling wine, from brand-new cuvées to underrated styles and regions where bargains reign. Each one has a great backstory, too, to get the conversation flowing.

This mouthwatering rosé bubbly is the new, less expensive version of Brad Pitt’s lush and impressive $350 Fleur de Miraval. Similar in style to the grand vin with crushed dried flower scents and bright energy, the Petite Fleur trades some complexity and depth for pretty notes of lemongrass, citrus and toast—perfect for a romantic aperitif. $110
