Yes, you guessed it - wine!Whether the lucky recipient is just learning about wine, is a seasoned collector or you're uncertain about their specific vinous preferences here are three gift suggestions from The Wine Atelier that are sure to please:1.) The Gift of Bubbles: What beverage is the vinous equivalent of a celebration? Sparkling wine, of course! Whether it's a Cremant from the Loire Valley, a sparkler from California or the real deal, a bottle of Champagne itself, sparkling wine is always well received. You don't even have to know the vinous preferences of your recipient because at this time of year, a bottle of bubbly is always "a good thing". In addition to being wonderfully festive, it also has mass appeal and pairs deliciously well with just about any party fare. Some favorites include the Charles Bove Brut Sparkling Wine, Loire Valley, France NV ($15), the Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs, North Coast, CA ($30), and for a real statement, how about a magnum of Taittinger Brut la Francaise, Champagne, France, NV ($129).2.)
