If you've ever scrolled through my Instagram feed, you'll quickly notice that I might have created the hashtag #ChampagneEveryGoddamnDay! There has always been something about champagne that captivates me. Beyond its rich history, where it's used to christen ships, mark royal coronations, and celebrate championships, there's an undeniable magic to it – a certain allure that's truly bottled enchantment.
Champagne, by its very nature, tends to come with a hefty price tag, and the top four sparkling wines that I've listed for 2023 are no exception. They're both expensive and rare, as is often the case in the world of champagne. However, let me clarify that I'm not apologizing for my preferences; rather, I'm acknowledging that these selections fall into the category of luxury. It's a way of saying, "Well, yes, they are pretty expensive and not the easiest to come by." But let me be clear: champagne, in all its effervescent glory, should be enjoyed at every level.
