What do you like to drink on a snowy day? Some people like a steamy cup of hot cocoa, I prefer a crisp glass of Champagne! As snow frosted the streets of Manhattan, I was warm and cozy inside with a bottle of Champagne Palmer & Co. Brut Réserve ($60). And since the first snow fall of the season is a special occasion, it only seemed fitting to pair it with Pearl Street Caviar Siberian Select (prices start at $25). You may call it decadent, I call it my snow day survival kit!

A blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier from the most prestigious terroirs in the Champagne region, Champagne Palmer Brut Réserve is full-bodied and vivacious. Aged four years on the lees, it is crisp and clean with delicate bubbles and a subtle creaminess. It pirouettes across the palate with flavors of lemon sorbet, golden apple, Japanese pear, and intriguing hints of ginger, hazelnut, and buttery brioche woven into the strong mineral core. A very elegant and delicious bubbly that is perfect on snowy days, sunny days, sultry nights, and more, Champagne Palmer & Co.’s flagship wine is quite impressive.
