Really wholesome situation. I like sparkling wines since they can be quite cheap and still be great.
Does a quarter of a bottle get either of you buzzed in the slightest or is it mostly for the taste? Great list, saving it.
Since we stick to a quarter bottle, each, on the supermajority of evenings, it still does deliver a light buzz. Technically, industry standard is five glasses of wine in the standard 750 ml bottle, so we’re drinking 187.5 ml versus 150 ml.
On the sparkling wine front, there has been a lot of terrible German Sekt produced over the decades but things have improved in recent, so there is now good value to be had as it still has a bit of stigma from the old days in export markets. We recently purchased a very nice bottle and are waiting to open it; we quite like all of our neighbors except one, and their home was just listed. Going to pop the cork once we learn it’s been sold.
And here is a famous sommelier, relative to the wine world, reviewing a bunch of the aforementioned Costco Kirkland Signature wines. The $10 seasonal Old Vine Zinfandel isn’t mentioned but is a favorite of ours.
