A Summer Night Sparkler

C and I recently popped open a bottle of bubbly that we had been saving for a special occasion. It wasn’t exactly a momentous day but we did made a big decision- to sell our beloved NYC apartment. Who knows where we’ll end up but with our growing family, we know we’ve (cue The Animals song) gotta get out of this place as evidenced by my 13 month old twins pacing back and forth and back and forth in our 800 square feet. We need a backyard… or a long hallway- something. But I digress, we popped this bottle to celebrate our ability to make this tough decision. We will miss our little piece of Manhattan but the story goes on.

In the meantime, we savored this sparkly goodness. I highly recommend this grower champagne to any and everyone that enjoys a complex glass of bubbly. Rodez apprenticed at Krug and it shows. His juice is truly the nectar of the Gods. It’s pricey for a Tuesday night, hence its (until recently) “cellared” status in our wine box that doubles as a side table- seriously, it’s a littles seagrass covered box and an end table (thank you Target) – but why not do it up on a Tuesday eve?

Pick up a bottle here- a wonderful gift for anyone that appreciates a very well made champagne.

Cin Cin!

P.S.: That book that is doubling as a coaster on my windowsill is Amazing. Our friends gave it to the bebes as their little one loved it- thank you Maeve- and it’s one of our (and their) favorite books. The illustrations are fabulous and I find something new every time I read it. ABC by Alison Jay.
