Dom Perignon 2015
$449.99
One of the world's greatest wines! Dom Perignon was the 17th century Benedictine monk who has gone down in history as the person who "invented" Champagne. He sold the brand name to Moet & Chandon, which used it as the name for its prestige cuvée, which was first released in 1937. Incredibly smooth, creamy fruit with perfect balance that with age takes on toasty aromas and a finesse equaled by very few of the other Grandes Marques. A blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes.
Taittinger Brut Reserve
$84.14
There's nothing like Champagne to turn an average day into something special. This terrific non-vintage dry Champagne received 90 points from both Robert Parker and Wine Spectator. "Bold fizz. Fresh, vivid and flavorful, offering pencil shavings, peach, citrus and ginger notes on a racy, elegant frame. Really alive and the finish lingers on and on," says Wine Spectator.
Billecart Salmon Brut Rose
$131.74
Such a beautiful pink sparkling wine! 89 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, too. The review: "The NV Brut Rose is a pretty, gracious wine. Freshly cut roses, red berries and spices take shape nicely in the glass as the wine shows off its understated, timeless personality. Billecart-Salmon’s NV Brut Rose is a reliably tasty wine." Billecart Salmon has been family owned since it was created in 1818; today, "the house is managed by brothers François and Antoine Roland-Billecart, who represent the sixth generation. Production averages 1.7 million bottles per year," according to Wine-searcher.com. The house is particularly famous for its legendary rosé. "We consider our Rosé to be a Champagne Rosé and not a Rosé Champagne. Because if you were blind tasting it, you wouldn’t guess it was a Rosé," Antoine Roland-Billecart told Wine-Searcher.com.
Raventos Mas Del Serral
$364.99
Northwest of Barcelona, in the Anoia Valley countryside, surrounded by the Sierra of Montserrat Mountains, is a distinguished family vineyard dating back five hundred years, where some of the finest, most innovative and most inspiring Spanish wines have been cultivated: the Raventós estate. Manuel Raventós, 20th generation winemaker in this area, created in 1986 the first estate-bottled and estate-produced sparkling wine in Spain with the first vintage of Raventós i Blanc. An estate where since 1497 the same family has been working– probably one of the longest-documented viticultural family traditions in the world. Following his father and his grandfather’s dream, Pepe Raventós, the 21st generation, joined Raventós i Blanc with the aim of pursuing excellence in every detail of the winery. Pepe’s spirit of innovation and perfectionism inspired him to create a world-class sparkling wine unlike any other- one made distinct by its minerality. It's safe to say that Raventos is the best sparkling wine producer in Spain and the Mas del Serral is a wine that can rival anything from Champagne.

Taylor Fladgate 40 Year Tawny Port
$369.99
Taylor's is now more than 300 years old, but it remains a family firm, 100% independently owned. This is an incredible example of an old Tawny port, and it's a real rarity, as so few houses will make a 40 year old tawny. This wine is olive gold in color, with rich caramel, butterscotch, hazelnut flavors. The concentration in this port also produces a wine with amazing length, which lingers beautifully on the palate. Very special!
