This year we have so many extra reasons for wanting a festive, joyful (if possible!) Christmas. I’m looking forward to popping open several bottles of delicious bubbly wine from Washington State around Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve. I might even break out the bubbles for a couple bonfire brunches I’m hoping to host in my backyard for two or three friends.
Take a look at some of the fabulous options for sparkling wine grown and made in the Lake Chelan Wine Valley and the Lake Chelan AVA. Support our local wineries by purchasing wine to enjoy yourself and to send as gifts this holiday season.
Hard Row to Hoe Vineyards offers their 2016 “Good in Bed” sparkling Brut Nature wine.
Wine club members can purchase Hard Row to Hoe’s 2017 Whole Picture ‘Au Naturel’ Petillant-Naturel sparkling wine.
Karma Vineyards is famous for their sparkling Washington wine flights as well as for their “French Kiss” bubbles in a can. Shop for their sparkling wine here – there’s even a pink sparkling wine! Your friends and relatives will surely be delighted to receive festive wine from Karma Vineyards in the mail!
Lake Chelan Winery offers their 2013 “Fifty Five Mile” sparkling wine which has a fan following.
Noviello Vineyards presents their 2013 Methode Champenoise Brut.
Rocky Pond created a 2017 Domaine CheValle Brut sparkling wine.
C.R. Sandidge Winery has two sparkling wines to choose from: Cardinal Sparkling Wine and Tyee Sparkling Wine. Both are Brut style and made from 51% Pinot Noir and 49% Chardonnay.
Sigillo Cellars has a (delicious, I know for a fact!) 2019 Sparkling Viognier Brut for sale.
Siren Song Wines offers a reserve 2015 “The Muse” sparkling wine. I’m a huge fan of their wines, their restaurant and their staff, but not a fan of their clunky, outdated online ordering system. Still, you’ll be able to order a festive bottle or two of their excellent wine via this link if you wish.
Tsillan Cellars offers their 2017 Methode Champenoise Brut sparkling wine, an estate wine grown in the Lake Chelan valley.
Worth noting – Cairdeas Winery made a sparkling “Clairette Blanche” wine, which was wine club only and I think is long sold out!
Did I forget any sparkling wines from Lake Chelan or Manson? Let me know in the comments below.
Enjoy your holidays – may they be healthy, merry and relaxing!
