Time to look forward to what to drink to bring in the New Year. There are so many choices to celebrate with, from nexpensive sparklers from Australia, Spanish Cava, Italian Prosecco, sparklers from France and then the ultimate with French Champagne.

Champagne is in great demand these days: availability is low and the dwindling supply is quickly snapped up by enthusiasts around the world; the soaring price increases do not deter buyers who want the ultimate in celebratory wine. deVine has searched high and low to bring these products for your consideration and listed below are some of our favourites.
