5 Best New Year Champagne Options for Every Budget

It’s not easy to find high-quality Champagne at this price point, due to the region’s strict laws around its cost- and time-intensive winemaking processes, as well its high demand. But there are fantastic options from small grower estates that prove you don’t need to spend a fortune on a great bottle of Champagne. 

Champagne Nicolò Paradis Brut

A remarkable find from the trendy Côtes des Bar region, this Champagne offers incredible character for the price. Champagne Nicolò Paradis Brut is a Pinot Noir-dominant blend aged for three years before release. It offers lively orchard and citrus fruit aromas, layered with subtle toasty richness and a fine, delicate mousse. A bright and refined choice for your New Year’s toasts.

Champagne Brigitte Delmotte Réserve

Champagne Brigitte Delmotte Réserve is another standout, crafted by fifth-generation winemaker Julien Fourrier at his family’s 170-year-old estate. Made with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, it offers vibrant notes of peach, apple and candied citrus, layered with toasted brioche and a creamy finish. A versatile and crowd-pleasing choice for New Year’s, ideal for festive gatherings or as a polished apéritif.
